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.

Good job we have free trade with our closest neighbours... oh.
A free trade agreement wouldn't make any difference, we're all fucked either way.
It makes us the least appealing country to export food to, when countries can sell to their neighbours more cheaply and quickly due to zero customs fees or procedures.
So many of my suppliers just stopped exporting to the UK.
They can't sell food they don't have. How can you still be thinking that climate change is going to be like a temporary blip in food supply? Don't you understand that we're all fucked? You really think that Brexit and all the rest of the bureaucratic nonsense people have considered important up until now will mean anything when half the population of the planet has starved to death? Don't you get where we're headed?
It's already happening, it will be gradual rather than instantaneous, and we will be the first to suffer.
