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.

Let me rewrite that for you;

“Twat gets cross at bank used by richer twats”

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 11 points 1 year ago

"Twat gets cross at bank used by rich twats when they find out the twat isn't as rich as he claimed, like the bullshit merchant he is"

I think he was trying to magically get rich by association.

I could not give less of a shit about this bloke.

Why is this guy still getting news time?

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago

Because he messed up the country, so it is always good to see him being inconvenienced. It should happen on a more regular basis though.

Anyone remember when he left UKIP and he went to America for a bit to lodge his tongue up Trumps backside looking for a job?. That little goblin got snubbed so hard we didnt hear from that little turd for ages.

Like a turd that wont flush, here he is trying to stink things up some more.

Yes, I wonder if the Ruskie cash dried up, causing this issue. Or he was just lying about his money.

I've got a right wing mate who was pointing out the "Farage has his bank closed" story the other week and trying to use it as scaremongering that it's the tip of the iceberg of a government agenda to threaten the populace and it could be happening to the everyman next. 😂

I don't think 95% of us are as much an annoying twat as Farage, though. 🙂

Why isn't he suing them then, instead of just whinging on social media about it?

@tinned_tomatoes @Emperor
He can't afford the lawyers.
