United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
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.

I'm saying that the government led organisation will have had a negligible impact compared to regular people, therefore the levels of organisation (ie people publicly saying "I'm going to vote for x/y to show my support" and other people seeing that and thinking it's a good idea) aren't that big of a deal.
Also I think it'd be incredibly shocking if the EBU or at least individual broadcasters don't already have requirements for tackling vote manipulation from suspicious/newly registered phones and especially voip services so a state organised campaign would have even less of an impact
I also see your source on the organisation is twitter (and I can't even find the tweets there), so I'm inclined to doubt it's true given nobody's even reported on it, never mind people coming out and saying it's happened despite the number of people in multiple countries who would be required to be sworn to secrecy to get something like that to work
