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.

So because the ruling class hoards everything, your solution is taking scraps from people who have even less than you? You know what that makes you? A cunt.

He voted for trump, so you know that you're dealing with both a top mind and complete chickenshit.

In American English, saying “I get it” isn’t the same thing as “I approve of it”. It’s entirely possible to understand a point of view without supporting that point of view. The commenter you’re responding to may not deserve to be called a cunt.

I know you mean. But the commenter i responded to is a conservative and a trump supporter. They deserve to be called worse than just a cunt.

A lot of British people are struggling. Why add more?

They're dying of heat. The council can't afford to fix the roads. They can't get a GP appointment. They can't find a job. The factories are gone. Their quality of life is suffering and for what?

Mass immigration doesn't solve anything, not even for the country they come from.

So why do it?

Why are you such a cunt to your own countrymen?

First of all, they are not "muh countrymen".

Second of all, those things have nothing to do with immigrants.

People are dying of heat because of climate change. Which is caused by corporations. They don't fix the roads because the rich hoard their wealth. Force apple to pay their taxes and you will be able to fix all the roads and more. They can't get a GP appointment because it is severely underfunded and people vote for cunts like Farage instead.

Non of these things have anything to do with immigrants
