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.

You can't just shoot people that aren't breaking any laws. Press or not.

What they'll lie and tell you is that a gathering can be declared illegal, but that's bullshit. If I'm standing there peacefully and someone else does something illegal I have not violated the law. I should not be guilty by association and I should not be stripped of my rights to peacefully assemble.

This is a lie they've been telling us for centuries to silence dissent
