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.

Independence issues notwithstanding, the SNP seem to have a pretty authoritarian streak of their own, especially under Yousef. Their attitude to free speech is quite lacking.
You ate absolutely correct in that regard.
They get my vote for a couple reasons.
They are the least bad option outside of what I used to do and vote for an independent.
Some of their policies that have been implemented have directly benefited me and mine. Annoyingly with policies that Labour should be pushing.
They are never going to be in government at the UK level with labour's policy of rather having a tory government than work with them.
They are a means to an end without being as bigoted as the lot that split off with Alex for the most part.
I find yousef very bland but I would say if the other nutter got the job I'd ho back to independents
