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.

For me the biggest problem with the Greens is that they don't talk about a realistic lifestyle that achieves their climate aims. As far as I can tell they just want us to sit around in forests banging rocks together and going "ug". It's all no to this, no to that, and no positive suggestions about anything.

Edit: oh and another thing it's because of those wankers that fuel taxes and taxes on taxes are so fucking high.

The greens in my country are too busy infighting with each other, and have all but collapsed after internal strife mostly regarding things completely disconnected from the environment.

Tell me you've never read the green party manifesto without telling me.
