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.

He wasn't even a good PM, and now ..

I'm still pissed that they/he screwed over the Alternative Vote referendum - a path to the Proportion Representation.

Looks like we're heading to a zealous two party system, like the States to me. That's never a good idea. The two parties are both trying to claim the middle ground but both are incompetent.

In Sir Kier's defence, he's a knight of the realm and so doesn't/hasn't get/got involved in politics.

That doesn't matter to them: in a two party system, not-the-other-one is a legitimate voting basis.

Come on now: Cameron was the best PM we've had for the last 5.
