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.

If you watch the video he points out why it works in those countries. They have learned to live in a cold country by building housing to suit. We have not done this because we burned cheap coal instead. All those older housing is not up to scratch. One thing you cannot get away from is the noise. We live with a much smaller land foot print than they do in Scandinavia. You are right about the oil though. I should have said fossil fuelled. I will edit it.
I am also speaking from experience. My sister took advantage of the scheme. They are very underwhelmed. I am never said there is no benefit. I think there are better gains in other areas.
