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.

I dont want to say twas different in my day but I regularly travelled an hour to school on several buses as did a number of my friends. Personally I can't see this as a reason not to attend school ๐คท. But then I don't have kids so what do I know?
I think you'd be hard pressed to find parents who are willing to load their primary aged children onto multiple busses to and from school nowadays. I know I wouldn't feel comfortable with that.
That's fair.
I was in primary school in the early 90s and there's no way my parents would have put little 4 year old me on a bus on my own.
In primary school?
Yup ๐
