United Kingdom
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.

I think i disagree
What bit do you disagree with? Hoping you don't think that it's fine for an old man to be evicted if he couldn't even be bothered to fight Hitler!
I agree it's worse to have put your life on the line for a government that doesn't support you later in your life than to be a citizen who didn't fight on behalf of the nation that failed them.
Of course i dont. But if there was one single demographic youd expect a government to look after it would have to be the people that gave it all for the country to continue existing. I think its more of a look how bad things have got story than it is a this is the only reason it matters story
