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.

Are you really this dense? Plus 50 is expansionary, below contractionary. It's a prediction of economic activity. Can you seriously not see a reason why this data would be factored into investment decisions?
It is based on the previous month. You can have 20 months at +50 and then contract. You are using a single stat from one month to justify something that happened 3 years ago. Typical Brexiteer gaslighting. Latching onto individual stats and bellowing the "see, see, see!". It is a fact people are much worse off since Brexit. Trying to say we are doing better than France or Germany is just ludicrous and very weak.
No shit, it's called a trend. I think you're just being obtuse or a troll
Whatever. How about looking at all the stories of when the UK was assumed to be the worst performer in the G7.
Now it isn't, so all that was wrong.
I don't expect you to get this, and I'm bored
Cya
You don't get a trend based on data point over 30 days to justify a 3 year period.
As for GDP which is an accepted way to give an indication on the economy.
UK was second among the large euro countries for GDP per capita pre brexit and still is
And again typical Brexiteer cherry picking. I am bored with you and your gibberish. I doubt anyone is still reading your BS. BB
Lol, cherry picking the largest economies in Europe
