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've come across this prat before, literally every single thread that they're in they have to take some stupid brainless position just to be argumentative, for the sake of being argumentative. It's not worth interacting with them, they're not interested in an actual discussion because they don't actually have an opinion, they just want to be awkward.

If there was a thread the sky is blue, they'd probably take the opposite position just to be irritating. They have no opinion of their own.
