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.

If only the British state had control over these sorts of things, what a world that would be.

My local delivery office is already down to posting once a week, I've been to the office and spoken to them twice before and they always blame it on my postman being sick.

I doubt that - more likely the Post Office is short staffed and can't afford to run a proper service.

More likely they won't pay for a proper service, as to do so would impact potential profits.
