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.

I do worry this will turn out yet another case of "Right Thing, Wrong Reason" like the gov keep fucking doing, again and again
Red Tories appealing to bigotry rather than cause unnecessary mutilation is a bad thing
Sadly just anti Muslim hate more than anything else
The reason it's not illegal is that another religion does it, and they have way more clout.
I was unaware muslims do circumcision.
Interesting self own but ok
