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.

The great Tory plan to just kill off and thin the heard rather than address the social issues they've caused.
They need more workers through endless population increases to maintain the system though. No immigration allowed though, of course.
A lot of this attitude stems from the fact that the Tories don't seem to think more than 30 seconds in front of their own face anymore. They are only interested in the next problem, and they never think about the ramifications, so even the moderates want to bring down immigration because they think it will be good for their polling numbers.
Not a thought is ever given to the fact that if they actually do bring down immigration to zero the economy would collapse, because that next week's problem, and who cares about that guy.
