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.

Is there a law that forces a school to serve meat to every student? That would be a weird law.
Schools should cater for dietary requirements, regardless of whether those requirements are for medical or moral reasons.
Vegans aren't difficult or expensive to cater for either, rice and beans are cheap.
The children might not be able to digest meat well if they don't eat it in schools
I've heard of this, but I'm not sure it's true, after searching I can't find a source that says it is either, are you aware of any studies that suggest this is true?
I'm not advocating removing meat from school meals either, just that everyone is catered for.
In general people can switch between meat and nonmeat diets -but the relevant gut microbiota are different and I don't know if children would know enough to ease into meat-eating again as needed, or to realize that that's what's going on when their tummy hurts
