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.

No?
Ah, got you - you're going to improve the individual lives and prospects of all citizens, creating a utopian nation, so they can each look forward to a healthy prosperous future and genuinely have nothing to worry about?
No?
no we gots to find money for tax cuts and also to buy more weapons and stuff.
Or how about investing in and restoring 'third places' like community centres where they can socialise without having to spend money?
Believe it or not, also no.
I have a bold strategy to dynamically do nothing about it at all.
