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.

wait..... why is this just boys, and also cant we have all of that?
True, you could argue that young women are also being negatively affected by "toxic influencers".
I guess Gareth has chosen to focus on issues facing young men though. Of course Gareth has experience mentoring young men, as the manager of England's men's football team.
Society probably should help both young women and young men, but maybe each group faces slightly different problems. E.g. according to the Samaritans, men are 3 times as likely to die from suicide as women, although women attempt suicide more than men do. So both groups clearly have problems, but they seem to deal with those problems in different ways. Maybe different approaches are needed when helping each gender.
