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.

I'm a big 6'1" man, and generally a lover of dogs, but I'm exactly the same. I once had a massive German shepherd barrel up to me at full tilt, no owner in sight, and launch itself into my belly. It was being friendly, as it happens, but that's hardly much comfort when a 30kg bundle of muscle and claws hurls itself at you at a full sprint.
The owner, when they materialised a few moments later, was a middle aged woman who chuckled about how "he's a big softy, he just wants attention". Like, sure, but it would have been small comfort if I'd been a 10 year old child or something. Keep that "lovable scamp" on a fucking lead if you can't keep them to heel...
