United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
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.
Wait. So they opened an export-focussed company a year after the Brexit vote? I mean it sucks and all, for them, but it doesn’t sound too bright either.
I believe they thought it would be possible to leave the EU politically but keep all the economic advantages.
Like so many politicians told them.
Indeed I’m sure you’re right that that’s what they thought, but it’s still an enormous risk to take. In any business plan that should’ve been a red flag.
And if on faith they chose to waive that risk, well… that’s just not great entrepreneurship.
