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.

Nobody can figure out why this is happening across the world...
Finding out would surely hurt somebody's profit.
It’s probably more a mix of desperation (likely caused by economic/labor woes) and a desire for fame.
Right but why is the society at large under so much pressure during time of prosperity
The U.K. isn’t prosperous though; not any more. It’s a country where lots of wealthy people live, but in terms of median income and bottom percentiles it’s very poor.
I think that's their point. That this is a time of prosperity, asterisk, for the few.
Prosperity for who?
We are working and owners are making money
No arguments with you my friend. People are feeling bad despite traditional indicators saying otherwise, which may have been a factor in the piece of trash’s decision to do what they did. Hopelessness and seeking fame is a bad combo
So is this racist shit just gonna stay up or…?
What does that mean? Was he Black or Muslim or something?
Lolwat?
