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.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
The wife of Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf said her parents, who have been trapped in Gaza since the Hamas attack on Israel, are "terrified" about what might happen next.
The Dundee City councillor said she was troubled by the language emanating from the conflict, especially claims Gaza would be "obliterated" in response to the Hamas attacks.
Earlier, her mother recorded a moving 40-second video clip from the city of Deir al-Balah in which she detailed the family's plight.
In a letter to James Cleverly, the first minister urged him to use the positive relationship between the UK and Israel to push for civilians in Gaza to be allowed to leave through the Rafah border.
The Glasgow Jewish community will later hold a "silent and peaceful" vigil for the victims in Israel on the steps of the Royal Concert Hall.
On Wednesday an official UK source told the BBC 17 British nationals, including children, are dead or missing in Israel.
