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.

Customers have just a couple of weeks left to use or swap their old stamps after Royal Mail introduced barcoded stamps last year to improve security and efficiency as part of the company’s modernisation drive.

In January, Royal Mail extended the deadline by six months for using non-barcoded stamps, following the introduction of barcoded stamps in February 2022. As a result, stamps featuring the late Queen’s profile that don’t have barcodes will soon be invalid.

You can swap old for new by sending them off - the Post Office (if you can find one) has envelopes.
