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 government underfunds the NHS, resulting in fewer staff to meet a greater demand for healthcare. This results in nurses, doctors and hospital staff who are hugely overworked, stressed and completely without time to do their jobs properly, all while being vastly underpaid compared to the rest of Europe or the private sector in the UK. This is done intentionally to make the service so poor that the people who can afford it pay for private healthcare, and eventually, the NHS will be replaced entirely by those private insurance companies and we'll be one step closer to America Lite.
