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.

Do not overeatimate the cps they are cynical cunts. Or the judges.

The judges can only rule according to the legislation. They don't have a lot of interpreting power, if these people have genuinely not committed a crime there isn't a lot that courts can do with them maliciously (unless they want to go full America and just straight up ignore the law which I don't think labour could get away with)

Ruling that protesters could not tell the jury about their motivation was all the judiciaries decision.

Don't pass the buck on this. England's judiciary, and their lawyer class in general, has betrayed the freedom of speech and expression that florist in England hundreds of years before the rest of the continent and made it to Envy of the world.

All for some chiseling cunts busy stealing our lunch and freedom with the help of that same judiciary. They think what remained of democracy is already dead.
