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.

You're having an argument with an imaginary position rather than asking them to clarify. It's beyond stupid to assume their position when you didn't have enough information to begin with. You're not showing yourself to be as smart as you seem to think you are.

Except they DID have enough information as this entire conversation is taking place under a "UK is considering banning disposable vapes" thread. The "well actually" is strong in this one.
