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 won't comment on the quality of the jobs, I honestly don't know enough about what happens in a port (apart from what happens in a dock town stays in a dock town ๐). But it was / is a billion of investment. That's not chump change by any means. The UK can't be turning its nose up at investment because of morals and a sense of duty. We don't have the headroom to do so. We're massively in debt. That's just the reality.
I totally get what you're saying. But I still feel that a large part of this resignation storyline is because she rocked the boat.
