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.

It's all a part of the culture war angle that the Tories (for some reason) are attaching themselves to. Boris might have been able to rally people behind stupid US-style rhetoric, but Rishi lacks the same charisma, and inheriting a corrupt party in freefall hasn't helped him build any.
When you set MP's in office with zero attachment to conservative values, poor Boris did, you ultimately end up with dozens of utterly fucking useless people that'll rather jump ship or throw stupid opinions around woke, transgender people, and the poor/young moaning too much, than to actually do their job.
