General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

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.

Im from the north east. None of those places. But they have already been doing schemes after covid of £2 rides from the provinces into the likes of Newcastle.

That has actually lapsed now but stuff like this gives me hope that they'll be able take charge and do something like it. There's also been a spate of bus shelter improvements near me also. Im loving the buses.

Though the number scratched into the back of the seat on the double decker I was on did not, in fact, lead to a hot fuck as was advertised.
