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.

Because defacing an ancient site has a clear connection to the environment... bunch of fucking self-centered attention-whores.
It's either this or ineffectual protests that get swept under the rug and ignored. You should be happy that their protest is purely cosmetic too.
These dang protesters and their... *flips script* attention seeking! Can't they just do nothin like the rest of us?
Defacing random things that don't have any connect at all to what you're protesting only makes you look bad.
Yeah, it got attention. Bad attention.
What would you have them deface?
Oh I don't know... Something that has anything to do with oil production
One could argue that Stonehenge is an icon of humanity's pre-industrial, sustainable origins and as such acts as a reminder of the future that humanity will face after the ecological and civilisational collapse currently underway as a direct result of oil production. And hence Stonehenge is something to do with oil production.
I would argue you're grasping at straws.
