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.

Crazy idea I know, but some shops employ a "security guard" for this purpose. They have to pay them with money instead of warm drinks, but as the security guard works directly for them, nobody can complain that they're hogging the attention of very thinly-spread police resources.
Security guards are there only to be witnesses to crimes when committed, for the police if/when they show up, as far as I know.
Security guards in the UK don't have any rights, they can't arrest, they can't use force, they can't do shit. They are nothing more than a decoration, sadly.
