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.
Left leaning police is an oxymoron
It really isn't.
Police in the UK are generally not right wing. Why would they support people who hate them, slash their numbers, slash their funding, and gave them pay stagnation?
The UK police is not like the US police where Republicans are clearly allied with them.
US brain has hit you hard.
You are delusional if you think police is anything more than a tool of the status quo to maintain their power and do their dirty work. It doesn't matter the country. Just a few recent examples: 1 2 3
Your proof of the police being right wing is that they arrest people for supporting terrorist groups, or breaking into an airport and blocking runways? Christ on a bike...
British police aren't right wing. Why the fuck do you think they want to attend Pride events, FFS?
Why do you hate LGBT people so much?
Lol, you are a reactionary piece of shit.
Police go to pride because the neoliberal elite has deemed it profitable. A couple of decades ago they called them terrorist, the same way you do with environment and pro palestine activists.
LOL
