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.

Under dangerous dogs?

I assume you mean due to their health issues. Cant disagree. But I think it would be a Heck of a lot more complex to define breeds that suffer.

There are already dogs banned because they suffer. The white Doberman is one of them. They're not banned in the USA, but they're banned in Europe.

Well my chihuahua has spent the day trying to catch a fly in my narrow boat. Pretty sure the fly is laughing at him.

I assume the /s was missed off?

Nah. I am assuming we have met a real life tom thumb. Or maybe the borrowers. I mean from that angle a pug must seem pretty gruesome.

But atm even if they exist. Pretty sure they can't vote. So parliment will not care.

I guess a Bully XL could choke on a pug while swallowing it ? Is that the danger pugs present you had in mind ?
