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.

So I had this idea:
Not long ago there was talk about this research that showed that colonialism wasn’t profitable for the countries undertaking it.
What was omitted though was that somebody did profit. Private citizens. Companies.
So what I thought is: they’re still around. The ones who did profit and their families and companies. And lately it seems they kinda own us all.
So how about reparations for all the ones who lost out in the gold rush. Who own no land, have no property, no capital. From all nations.
