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.

Apparently Cambridge is the only major(ish) city with any balls. Wtf London

why is no one voting in the county's borders?

There's a disproportionately high amount of old people in that area - a demographic probably less likely to care about a gaming preservation petition.

but why are all old people aligned in the county borders???

It looks like the current rate is almost enough for the due date. We need to push harder!

Is that the percentage of the signatures, or a % of the people in the area that have signed?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

It is the % of constituents

Tysm for posting this, I made the mistake of assuming the UK wasn't part of SKG. Signed!

It's not part of the EU petition but there is a UK petition which is separate. There was also one going in Australia if you know any Australians.

Can you link the Australian one?
