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.

Honestly, it's absolutely disgusting.

For a time my retired father was looking into buying one, but I'm super glad in retrospect now this has all come out that it didn't go through and he walked away.

These parks and the individuals who run them are intentionally scamming vulnerable people out of their entire retirement by painting a false picture that these holiday caravans are a sound investment just like owning a house, while all the while knowing fully that people will lose almost everything they put in.
