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 love this news, but I wish we revisited the Liberal Democrats' efforts in 2010 to insulate the existing housing stock. My mum's 1970s house got loft insulation for free from the coalition government and it's now so good at retaining heat.
I now live in a Victorian house that is extremely expensive to heat and I have to have windows/vents open to prevent damp. I wish we got free loft insulation..
If you're not renting, have you looked into a small MVHR unit?
It draws air in and out of the house across a matrix, which heats/cools.
This means that the air gets refreshed, without cooling it too much.
