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.

It's all about presenting, here's some ideas:

Say "Don't cross guys it's not worth it" While sipping drinks while getting a manicure.
Say "Don't cross guys it's not worth it" At the golf course just after a swing.
Say "Don't cross guys it's not worth it" In the hospital where a cute nurse just walked out of frame.
Say "Don't cross guys it's not worth it" While stepping out of a Rolls Royce.
Say "Don't cross guys it's not worth it" After finishing a big meal in a fine restaurant.

I hope someone makes that kind of videos.

The biggest deterrent the UK has is that these poor immigrants will have to deal with the conservatives and their inability to understand anything.

If they are prepared to put up with that I'm not sure anything will stop them coming.

They really should just put up a Conservative campaign stand in Calais
