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.

The private sector is all right, but the public sector is absolutely mad. Everything is being run by committees these days which is a polite way of saying that everything is run by idiots that don't respect other people's talents. Also there's always someone that thinks that "patriotism" will somehow fill the pay gap.
When the gap was only £10-20k a few years ago, you could justify to yourself that sticking in the public sector was probably affording you some quality of life benefits.
Now the gap is more like tripling your salary and nearly everyone good has left for greener pastures. Hell, the work/life balance didn't even change much for me
