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.

Ok, but that's still a personal choice, you could cook but chose not to. If you gain weight or health issues from your diet that's not societies fault.

work requires long hours to get by

doesn't have the time to make food from scratch every day

entirely their fault

???

Not to mention the cost of electricity has skyrocketed in recent months, so cooking (esp. using an oven) is massively expensive.

I cook my own stuff from scratch, but that's because I have a job that I can work from home for, and that I can flex hours with. But I have the empathy to recognise that I'm privelaged in that regard.
