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.
you know what the issue here is don't you. what you reckon doesn't reflect reality. statistics does, and statistics agrees with me. not you,
I don't know why we are so addicted to "what i reckon" thinking in this country, why it's so ingrained into our culture. but it's really dangerous and sad.
statistica has the level of shoplifting incidents returning back to pre-pandemic levels after obviously it dropped during pandemic. these are the normal levels. What has changed is the value of the goods. and that's the value that's always reported when people talk about the increases.
Where are you getting your figures from?
