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.

Depends on where you are in the world.

I live in Ireland, the only Nissans you see here are Micra, Leaf, Arriya and some non EV SUVs.

They are usually driven by middle aged moms and they get them on finance from a dealer.

Most young guys here all drive BMWs or Audis or even older VWs. They tend to be the most aggressive on the road and so I imagine, the most likely to crash.

Fair point. I live on Vancouver island and the only people driving bmws are old people. Honestly it's annoying they buy such fast cars and we hardly see them ever floor it.
