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.

Can't believe Farage is still a thing. Are we all really this collectively stupid? :(

Oh yes.

Reform recently took over my local county council. Then they closed a community centre.

Response from the Facebook Crazies? "Why have Labour done this?" ๐Ÿคก

Farage should never have been a thing. But the media can't seem to leave tge prick alone

Also, if the system you use to make decisions is insanely unbalanced (FPTP), and you ask it insane questions ("should Nige be within shouting distance of any position of power?") then the answers it gives aren't really worth taking seriously.
