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.

So much to lose?

Like our strong and stable governments?

People around the world admire our monarchy and funny way of doing things

Just because other people are ignorant doesn't mean we should keep on doing stupid things.

You say "strong and stable government" sarcastically. Look at most of the world. Then look at our government. Sure, we aren't the best, but some places have it far worse. Our government has done enough powergrabbing, without a monarchy it could be far worse. I don't trust the tories as head of state.
