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.

Brollywood is an excellent pun.

British Hollywood - a portmanteau.
Brolly Wood - brolly is an umbrella in British slang.

Sorry for dissecting this frog. I just want to make sure everyone can appreciate how delicious the pun is.

If we assume that Ingerland is an acceptable spelling of England (and no other nation exists in the UK 😠) then how about Inglewood?

That way we'll be immortalised by 2pac in the same song as Hollywood!
