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.

ITV news coverage of this was disgusting, IIRC they were fearmongering and calling it another case of increasingly more common anti-semitic attacks on jews as well as terrorism. Even just the tone of voice by the newsreader was awful to listen to because if a Zionist stabbed two Arab muslims instead, it likely wouldn't even be covered by them, if it was the attacker would be considered a rogue, crazy individual and not at all linked to any kind of ideology or particular prejudice.
I feel sorry for the victims and they shouldn't be used as pawns in this grander Zionist narrative but I just wanted to point out this insane bias and unequal coverage.
I have gotten Four bbc news notifications about this. Four. Last time there was a synagogue attack, I got like six or seven. One or two, maybe the breaking news, and then maybe one at the end of the day if there's something important that happened worth mentioning, but I do not want rolling coverage of this event. One was enough
