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.

Standing still in front of a television camera man with nothing else around you, holding a microphone and talking in to the camera, while a fascist police calmly raises their gun in full view of the camera and shoots you in the back from about 10 yards away?

Also she was a woman.

...or are we talking about ANOTHER journalist they shot today? Surely there weren't two?!

How many innocent people are they shooting, I wonder? How many are being disappeared to the American Gulags of El Salvador without a trial? The journalists at least have a voice, the others won't be so lucky.

You’re thinking of the Australian woman who i also saw get shot live the next day (yesterday). The guy in the thumbnail is who I’m talking about and was the night prior
