United Kingdom
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.

“If you support Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, better known as Tommy Robinson, a British anti-Islam campaigner and one of the UK's most prominent far-right activists. Robinson has a history of criminal convictions. Robinson was a member of the British National Party, a British fascist political party, from 2004 to 2005. Or Katie Hopkins, Laurence Fox, or anyone of that ilk I suggest you block me because if your mask slips then I will simply block you with a merry wave as I tell you to go fuck yourself. Before you cry that we should not lose friends or associates because of a difference in political opinions then I have a have a simple lesson for you. Being xenophobic, racist, fascist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, Islamophobic, misogynistic and a downright shit stain on the backside of humanity is not a difference in a political opinion. It is a difference in morality and in your support for these individuals means your moral compass aligns with being racist, fascist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, Islamophobic, misogynistic and I would consider you a shit stain on the backside of humanity too”.
