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.

The wife and son of the Russian combat drones Lancet creator, Alexander Zakharov — Svetlana Zakharov and Lavrentiy Zakharov — have owned an apartment worth £1.5 million (about 180 million rubles at the current exchange rate) in an elite area of London since 2018. The UK has imposed sanctions on the drone manufacturer, LLC CST, but not on the Zakharov family.

Well I suppose the UN can impose sanctions on the son?

WTF clickbait is this?
