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.

Personally, as it appears that nothing illegal has occurred, I'd be perfectly happy to see him return to reading the news. He has a calming demeanour and is very good at what he does.
Now, whether he'd want to sit in front of the camera again is another thing.
That's just it. Nothing unlawful seems to have occurred at this stage. Maybe he got a bit of Clarkson syndrome about his power and money, that remains to be seen.
But if this all fizzles out and he's able to professionally (and mentally) recover from it, I'd be happy to see/hear him ~~orrsentythr~~ present the news again (edit: keyboard went a bit psuedo-Welsh there ironically...) , when and if he is ready. It'd be like when Stephen Fry went missing and the nation was concerned for his wellbeing and return to public life.
Now it's just a sad story about personal lives being made public. At least the 'young person' is not in the public eye at the moment.
