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.

Because the fucking Chelsea tractor owners of Uxbridge, one of the best connected places in the country with 3 tube lines, two mainline rail and bus frequency measured in minutes, didn't like to have to pay to drive their tractors and so surprise victory against ULEZ was only way tory could win....of course there may be an element that anti ULEZ sentiment is funded by oil and car companies.
