United Kingdom
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.
8 months before the election, prepare to see the right wing media gear into action and spread lies about everyone except the Tories, and the 20 point leaf labour had will likely disappear, and I would be surprised if the Tories get back in again.
However, rishi sunak seems to be a candidate that even the Tories hate, perhaps because he's not white and richer and more succe6and powerful than the average Tory voter- at least they found something in common with the Clown - an idiot who "you could have a pint with".
God, tory voters are pathetic.
I am expecting the lead to dwindle, but not by as much as you would expect because the Tories have used all the bullets up trying to hide from the truth in other areas. So yes, I would agree with you in any other election period except this one. For that media will have an impact, but that impact is lessoned by the lack of trust that the media is viewed with these days. Even Tories know that we are being led up the garden path when it comes to the UK media.
