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.

Read the article. Canada (Canadian Border Officials) discovered that she was in the US with the wrong type of visa, so she was taken into custody. This would have happened in the past as well. The amount of time it takes I assume depends on the amount of people being investigated.
This is incorrect. Canada discovered she had an incorrect visa to enter Canada, as she had a tourist visa and they determined she'd need a work visa - so they sent her back to the USA, where she had come from, to reapply for her Canadian visa and then re-enter - but the USA border agents, on seeing her getting rejected, questioned her about her stay in the USA and determined she had broken the terms of the visa she was in the USA under, and thus detained her.
Yes, maybe what I wrote is easily read wrong. I meant taken into custody by the US.
