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.

That whole comment amused the hell out of me because that's what's happening here. I live in South Tyneside and our bin men have been on strike since before Christmas. Nothing to do with the council running out of money, but down to one of the higher ups being a huge workplace bully and the council won't kick him out.
It's gotten so bad that there are now several skips dotted all over South Tyneside where people are expected to turn up and dump their overflowing rubbish.
The whole area is turning into one massive tip all because of one asshole the council refuse to do anything about.
