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.

Have to hand it to Bezos for his commitment to cartoonish supervillainy. Amazon resist unions the most aggressively out of any company out there, with employee mandatory training modules being anti-union propaganda and agitators facing disciplinary procedures. I'd even heard that their office workers can end up being battered by them too. Rumour about their Edinburgh office is that 20% of devs get PIP'd every year to keep them on their toes.
