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 feel like everytime this is brought up, headlines ignore the whole "pretending to be under 18" part...
How that's interpreted determines everything else.
It's also super weird they don't ban everything where the person pretends to be a child tho...
Isn't child porn already illegal though? Even pretending to be I am pretty sure counts by UK laws.
They're just annoyed that every time they go on pornhub for some wank material that it is dominated by step-fantasy shit.
But this wouldn't actually outlaw that...
They'd throw some kind of line/establishment that they're over 18 in that takes 10 seconds and it's legal again. Or even just a "all characters are based on someone 18+" screen.
That's why it doesn't make sense anyone is making it a big deal, it does absolutely nothing.
It's a distraction from real shit.
Yeah, all the tractor stuff gets pushed to page 8 and you have to do loads of scrolling.
Who's making that determination though?
