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.

Denmark are still worse though so no need for alarm. Scottish drug deaths meanwhile...
Well, we've a minimum pricing per unit on alcohol, any kind of multipack deal is forbidden, and the licensing hours are such that it's easier to get yourself some bennies than it is to get a drink before lunchtime; need to plan your day around getting some booze in the house.
National drug policy should really be about minimising harm, with treatment and rehabilitation for addicts, but any kind of talk that isn't about stringing them all up is anathema to our circus of bawbags in Westminster.
