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.

MODERATORS
Increasing polarisation under First Past The Post and a media apparatus that systematically destroys all nuance? Say it ain't so.
Or... (and bare with me here) generations of establishment parties doing fuck all for the people while burning the world, backing a genocide, and insisting that everything was fine because "line goes up".
Support for Labour and the Conservatives fell apart when both parties decided that they didn't care about the same things the electorate do. There's no nuance missing. They gave up and expected us all to fall in line. We aren't, and now they're acting confused as to where their support went.
No yeah you're right, I don't need a complex explanation for it
What, exactly, is more complex about your answer and why would you two not believe all of these factors matter?
I was only trying to cede the point in a sarcastic way, it just didn't come across well. Oops, fuck it
