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 have this feeling the sign on the right in the thumbnail is missing the letter "i"
I thought the same, but apparently it's UK English meaning 'for rent'
We’ve known this for years why is this news and who is surprised by this?
To me this reads as classism rather than racism but they don't want to open up that can of worms
Any 1st/2nd generation immigrants are likely to be worse off, so show me Black, Romanian, Italian, Australian, Chinese data and I bet they're all similar figures (similar to working class British people as things like incomplete credit history etc. will balance out removing upper classes from the data)
It's just an effort to turn people against each other based on skin colour so the people doing the discriminating can claim they're good as they're not racist, and everyone is too distracted to notice
