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.

I watched this yesterday, I'm well along the path of learning piano and was already gigging, so anyone doing these sorts of public performances is interesting to me right now.

I don't see anything in the video that says to me that these are CCP members specifically; we Canadians tend to put a flag on our backpacks when abroad, and folks traveling with a language barrier are well-advised to do the same. It is a "communist flag" but it's also their national flag. ->

That being said, there is a strange presumption on the part of the guy walking up and trying to tell the guy not to film in a public space in the UK; I would likely have reacted exactly the same way, though I don't remember him pointing out to the guy that he was livestreaming, and therefore the *only* move left is to get out of range of the already-live camera. Pointing out that it's too late for them not to be seen might have been a quick end to it. ->

I found a video that happened before the events from the stream and the chinese were actually very friendly there and even played piano and danced themselves with big smiles on their faces??? This makes me very confused about what actually happened there. https://youtu.be/OKd-SFbYrFY
