United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
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.

Where are the geniuses who told us that siphoning money from public infrastructure to benefit foreign pension funds was a good thing?
One of the things I really hate about the whole situation, is that the pension funds are trotted out as a puppy.
"But if you default this company, then all these people will lose money on their pensions."
Says the fund who bought into a water supply company and then (I assume) said nothing when plans for huge dividends based on loading it up with debt were announced.
