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.

Guys. I'm not sure the barge is putting people off...
The barge didn't even work for putting people on.
Just process the poor people and make them a part of society. What's the problem? Bloody Tories!
Not sure it's as simple as that. Proving ID etc, finding them somewhere to live when there are thousands on waiting lists, finding them suitable work, kids into schools that are already overcowded or the roof is falling in, healthcare from a system that's broken, childcare. Then you have language issues. Our system just isn't up to it.
Not with the Tories in charge, no. They've created this mess.
