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 never ceases to amaze me how useless Labour have been since Blair and Brown took over.
I've no issue with their policies - far from it for the most part - but how any party can be so completely ineffective at reflecting their voting base is really quite impressive.
They could have literally sat back after ten plus years of Tory pocket-lining and shithousery, and just road the coattails of "being less wank than the government before" but nah, that would be too easy.
It's actually a masterclass.
