General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

It seems wildly racist for the conservatives to say "Not enough social housing? Just evict people we view as lesser".

It's nakedly an attempt to pit the poor against each other instead of actually fixing the issue.

It's victim blaming pure-and-simple. Not only that, but it's coming from the abuser. The Tories CAUSED this crisis, and now they're blaming those suffering from it.

This is not a full article, but the readers comments really dunk on this nonsense and I like it.
