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.

Which will be met with the response "but I'm not an 'immigrant' why should I have to carry this ID card?!"

'I'm not an immigrant' is their code for "I'm white".

As much as xenophobic cunts fantasise the idea of stricter border controls and US-ICE style raids, they're also the same cunts that complain about long queues at airport security and HATE it when an authority figure questions them or forces them to do something.
