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.

I can't either so I'll have to speculate. I imagine it must be a personal phone, because a government-provided one should be accessible by their sysadmin so Johnson's password wouldn't be required. Despite his public act he's not an idiot, so his personal phone probably will be encrypted, but I imagine the default iPhone encryption won't be able to outlast the police's resources if they really want to get in.
It'll almost certainly be his personal phone. A recurring issue with the tory government has been that they use their personal phones for government business.
