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.

But why won't anyone think of the cars!

It will just be like cycle lanes and bus lanes. They take up all the space that could be used by cars! There isn't enough space for cars! All these poor taxi drivers will be dead in the gutter and ambulances won't be able to move if we legalise e scooters. Poor old ladies that can't walk wont be able to use their car.

What this government needs to do is ban cycling, buses, taxis, pavements, wheelchairs, and invest in roads! We should turn all our railway lines to roads let's face it no one uses trains. This country was built on cars!

Fucking idiots can't do anything right.

Also ban speed cameras. I can't get anywhere as fast as I used to and it's dangerous to have to slam on my breaks every time I see a speed camera.
