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.

Good news if true. Feel horrible for the accused.

I think I have an idea who was accused, especially if it was fake because it would be an easy target to generate a story. I hope he isn't too hurt by this

At least they didn't name him. It lines up though because if they had no evidence, they couldn't really publish the name. There was a picture doing the rounds of a presenter online but I think if they had that and it was real they could publish about it

Yeah, it did the rounds on Twitter and was discussed on Reddit. Some people feel it could be a deepfake and it definitely isn't the picture The Sun were talking about, which would support that notion, as does this update because it sounds like the teenager wouldn't have leaked the image.

It actually did have good content tbh. I quite liked him so I followed him.
