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.

How would someone accidentally throw bacon into their neighbor's garden?

I lived in a house once that only had a little 1m high fence between the front gardens / drive of my house and next door.

The bins for each house were either side of that small fence, so basically next to each other. I'm sure if a bin bag had split when I was putting it in the bin the bag's contents would have fallen on both sides of the fence.

Anyway, the point is simply that things can happen purely accidently and not break the law, which in another context - especially when done with purpose and intend - would break the law.

I get your meaning, it's just a really odd/funny example.
