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.

First off, fuck landlords - they shouldn't have a say in whether you're allowed to keep pets.

I do however think that people in your house should have a say with loud animals. There are few things more annoying to me than incessant barking - and even if that usually isn't the case with a well-trained dog, you usually have little guarantee how it will turn out.

That's not to say I'm absolutely against dogs. Someone in my house is a dog trainer, and they wanted to get one, and asked the house for permission. I agreed since they have the necessary knowledge - but if it were someone else I probably wouldn't have agreed, because there isn't much you can do once they own a loud dog.

There's a fucking lot you can do because nuisance animals are not really welcome anywhere.
