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.

Is this the factory that produced the drone used in the recent attack?

Not sure if it's the exact factory that made the drone, but it was an Elbit made drone.

"Palestine Action is targeting factories operated in Britain by Israeli-owned Elbit, which supplies military drones to Israel."

It's right there in the article.

The factory makes drones for Israel, Israel used a drone in this strike, but that doesn't necessarily mean this factory made this drone.

I mean if you want to use that as an argument that's fine, but it does not make you look good.

Why are you trying to turn this into personal attacks all of a sudden??

It's a strange hill to die upon.
