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.

Maybe they took the contract out before being forced into welfare? Last I checked companies aren't overly happy if you ask to end your contract early.
That's possible and will happen, but most likely it's that within the group who can't afford a 30 quid contract, there will be a contingent who will take it out anyway and that smaller group will get the headlines and that's what we chat about.
It ain't as sexy to talk about then people who budget relentlessly to make ends meet and still struggle.
