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.

They can't graft the tree back onto the stump? I know it'd be a lot of work, but wouldn't it be worth it for a tree that iconic? Even if it probably wouldn't work, wouldn't it be worth a try?

Edit: why am I being downvoted for being hopeful that it can be fixed?

Unfortunately it won’t take. But… it is possible to transplant very large mature trees if you have enough money to do it so I really hope they give it a go.
