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.

Ya but your argument is also expecting public space to be given to you to the detriment of others. It's a double edged sword.
"Park on a different street" literally just shifts the problem.
If a public parking lot was available then ya, totally feasible, but it'll have to be big which then takes up the land from something else, again shifting the problem.
You're getting upitty with someone who is concerned that knee-jerk public policy is going to have large, likely unplanned, detrimental effects on the citizens outside of just themselves.
Actually I'm more going for "don't have a car if you don't have anywhere to put it". I know it's an unpopular opinion, but having a car is not a right and the sheer volume of them is to the detriment of the entire population.
Taking space used for cars and giving it to cyclist does actually make everyone's life better, even drivers. You get less pollution, traffic, medical cost to the NHS, pedestrian deaths, and infrastructure costs.
