I'm doing my part! I haven't murdered anyone in the last 51 years!
”I'm 70, btw!"
It feels like you should have some kind of achievement badge for that.
Farage: "there are some significant rises in crimes of all kinds, particularly crimes against the person"
That’s a lesson straight from Trumps Office of Made Up Statistics.
Well he kinda needs people to think things are getting worse, but the only things that are actually getting worse are things he will make even worse.
It's a fact, that is inconvenient to the alarmist press, that crime peaked in the early 90s.
I mean... Even the criminals are depressed and unmotivated.
I think this must be the problem. Why won't Labour fix this?
Quick, better get more cops and less rights!
Its a crisis! Nobody's killing people. Just *rump, but that's in a meruca.
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.
