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.

Fuck vapes and fuck vapers. I don't want to breathe your cloud of toxic fake-fruit-smelling shit.

And so what? Plenty of things I do not like, cars, chippies, fast food, non-brutalist architecture, low-rise buildings, smoking, weed and weed people (nothing against drugs, just weed), etc.

But I understand that others do like those things and that we don't all have to like the same things, and when in a public space with others I will inevitably be exposed to those other things and I don't think it's reasonable in any society with some degree of individual freedoms to campaign the government to ban every single thing I dislike.

We should ban some things, but only with good cause, i.e. the bully XL ban, just too dangerous as it stands.

Vaping is harmless for the vaper and for the non-vaper. You are hurt far more by pollution than anything like this.

Fuck vapers billowing out their enormous clouds of nauseating, fetid, fruit guffs. I don't want to smell your straw-fucking-berry exhalation, you self-absorbed wankers.
