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.

Yep. It could indeed become integrated as it already somehow is, at least over here in Germany: If you are in end of life care the doctors will help you with a lot of medication to painlessly die. In that stage nearly nobody suffers anymore.
Just change the guidelines a little bit, find medical staff who are sympathetic to the cause, and a lot of suffering will be no more.
Apparently it used to be more like that here in the past until a doctor called Harold Shipman helped loads of people die who didn't actually want to die.
It made a lot people uneasy about doctors administering lethal doses of painkillers.
