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.

Christ. I'm not one of those 'he should be behind bars for the next thousand years' kind of people but causing a multi-car pile up, leaving people (who have suffered life-changing injuries) trapped in one of the cars he hit, coming back to pick up his suitcase and still failing to report the crash... three years doesn't sound like it's enough.

If that story is true, this is a real 3 minutes of hate character.
