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.

Sure seems like an awful lot of this was caused by the school being overly heavy handed in their actions towards the child.

Also the argument that pupils shouldn't be wearing 'signs of political allegiance' looks a bit odd when they're flying a Union flag over the front gate.

The sad thing is that this is a really good local school. It could have handled things better, but the level of torch-and-pitchforking going on is disturbing

Sounds like the deep south in America. That’s sad. Really sad.
