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.

Not yet convicted, so don't jump to conclusions, but it's not looking good for him.

Obviously "innocent until proven guilty" but as it is for manufacturing child abuse images then they must have some pretty damning evidence.

Normally I’d whole heartedly agree, but to be accused of anything even close to CSAM means he is likely one of:

  • guilty, and not smart enough to hide it
  • innocent, and incredibly stupid (considering his position in media)
  • the victim of a very dark Wile E. Cayote frame up job

Guess we’ll all find out soon enough.

faie point on the invidividual level but let's be real...

Catholic Church, Hollywood, YouTube celebs, politicians, police, prisons...

There is a pattern in there. It is getting tiring of normies denying it

Isn't Huw Edwards a Presbyterian, though?

[–] sunzu@kbin.run 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

no idea... it aint like other religions are any different, Catholics just got a world wide pedophile protection racket going so it is easy to point to them.

but all religions are like this, mohamed was a pedo according their own writings lol

southern baptists in southern US keep getting caught raping children...

religion is cancer that enables access and cover.

[–] Flax_vert 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure rape exists outside of religious institutions... Such as schools... Which enable both access and cover 🙄 does this make education a cancer? What about hospitals? Or media corporations? Or governments? Or even families?

[–] sunzu@kbin.run 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yes exactly until these failed institutions start acting in good faith... ie hold perps accountable instead of covering for them, they should treated as cancer that they are.

Hospitals are notorious for misconduct, albeit not child rape. Just generic corpo trash behavior extracting money while people die.

There are also plenty of churches which do hold people accountable. Those just don't make the headlines or hit the atheist talkshows.
