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.

2016 was the year that America and Britain were in a contest to see which country was dumber, at the time it was believed that America would win, Britain seemed like they were ahead, but America had a trump card.

I give the point to America, because they have at least managed to vote out their idiot. Something Britain still needs to do.

I'd withhold judgement before we see whether they vote their idiot back in next year, and there's a scarily high probability of that happening.

Yeah, but the idea of the Donald Trump actually won the 2020 election will forever be a conspiracy theory believed by idiots. Even though it's the weakest one considering Chump is one of the most unpopular incucumbents in US History
