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.

Krystal ended the experiment prematurely after finding response times suffered. On Monday, its busiest day, the team was only 50 per cent staffed

Whose stupid idea was it to make Monday's one of the days off then? Sounds more like bad management

Wednesday is best, imho.

Anything that happens on weds, you've got time to catch it on Thurs/Fri. And you've only got to deal with two work days at a time.

It is also likely that companies would need to employ more staff to cover the reduced hours. That would cut into those precious profits though.
