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.

He should also get rid of FPTP now. If he doesn't, the sane vote will be split Lab, Green, Lib and maybe Plaid, SNP and maybe Con. While the nutty vote all goes to Reform and they get in with like less than a third of the vote.

What voting system would be a better fit, for a better reflection of voter preference?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Preferential voting for the Lower House (of Commons), Proportional voting for the Upper House (of Lords).

My preference is score/range voting. Then there is no vote splitting.
