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.

There is no such thing as a non-ideological political decision, and the only people who think there is are the people who have been so thoroughly indoctrinated in the prevailing ideology that they are incapable of seeing it as anything other than "common sense".

Lmao, yeah the Ideologies at play here are 1. Believing in equal access to healthcare, which a genocidal AI company like Palantir will NEVER BE ABLE TO FULFILL properly, and 2. An opposition to AI because we believe in not letting robots steal human jobs

Ah, if it ain't Louis "Blackshirt" Mosley. Never met a less ideological guy. He's like an ideology black hole. I wonder if he's written to his boss and overlord asking them to tone down the ideology nonsense, you know, the western chauvinism, the bizarre antichrist conspiracy ramblings. I expect he's getting around to it.

Never should have been a contract in the first place.

refusing to put all citizens private health data in the hands of a war profiteering foreign known bad actor intity is an ideology these modern day Stasi never could understand.

Louis Mosely, the UK boss, is Oswald Mosely's grandson. Y'know, the famous British fascist who wrote the Rivers Of Blood speech. One wonders how far the apple has fallen from that particular tree

Rivers of blood was Enoch Powell, a Conservative (plus ça change). Oswald Mosley was the leader of the British Union of Fascists.

It's fair, they were both cunts.

Ideologies always exist. It just shouldn't be hollow of empathy and kindness like Palantir. They have the ideology of a Loser. (I heard accusations of being a failure irks them more than accusations of being evil)
