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.

Ah, I don't have many dealings with DPD but it makes sense. If they're already handling Evri and DPD parcels and, presumably having them picked up by the companies' vans then it's only a bit of a tweak to offer these as options. The more options the more pressure on companies to improve. At the moment when you shop online, you don't seem to get many options (presumably big companies shop around for the best deal - Amazon can come via their vans, via Flex or Evri. Next is Evri because, I'm told, no other company has the capacity) so, hopefully, this might change that and keep the Post Offices viable.
