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.

She was 89 and no doubt lead a truly fulfilling life, and so I think objectively it's not a sad passing - she had a truly remarkable life and long life.
That said, she was a significant part of my childhood, and always on the television in the various households I've lived in for one show or another. It feels like losing a beloved grandmother, and I'm devastated. RIP Maggie.
She was one of the people I mentally considered immortal. She has been 'old' my entire life.
