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.

So they are actually just moving the burden of risking Royal Mail’s dodgy stamp scanning onto the sender instead of the receiver. Doesn’t do much to restore confidence in the system.
If the fraud detection is really that bad that Royal Mail have had to admit it publicly, it now makes me wonder if there really were any fakes at all.
Perhaps it’s time to break down their monopoly on letter distribution if the privatised Royal Mail has ended up in this sort of state.
