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.

Too many fake tits on there

I wish more organisations would remove themselves from this platform, however it seems that they are deeply embedded and it's an accepted communications channel with their customers/public.

The best way to tackle this is to simplify fine or tax advertisers that run advertising on Twitter. Make a law that says if you advertise on Twitter which is a known sexual abuse platform via it's Grok AI then you yourselves get fined or taxed. Think of it like a sugar tax. Make it regulatory difficult to do business on Twitter.

Cut off their funding like you would do a terrorist organisation or rogue state.

If I'd seen this earlier, I would have congratulated their chugger at the shops! I wonder if that would have gotten back to HQ. Now, are they in the fediverse yet?

They are on Bluesky so I guess that's half-way there.

It's really not. Bluesky is just a twitter repeat, another centralised service ready to be subverted when it helps the far right.
