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.

Yep. My holidays for this year were a weekend in Manchester and a week in and around London.
I normally don't go on any holidays at all, and we weren't exactly living it up at the premier inn, my bank account is looking shit because I went a few hundred miles away for a week and a half. And I should be greatful for that, I know that there are so many people that have no holidays at all and still have to live paycheck to paycheck.
I joined the work force just before 2009 and we're back in the economic shit again already. I thought we were supposed to have some times of prosperity in between the recessions!
I feel like I've done everything right. I went to college, did an apprenticeship, have never been in trouble with the law and have never been out of work since the age of 16 (I'm 36 now). I feel like my spending power reflects the effort I've shown poorly.
