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.

Was in a Tesco's about a month back and saw this bugger flying around my mum's partner whilst queueing for the self checkout, with about 4/5 more flying around, I plucked it out of the air and got a photo of it
Couldn't make a positive ID on it, though I'm unsure if its a local one - I've always heard to be wary of stripped legs
There seems be a lot more insects around this autumn and winter this year. I had an insect bite about a week ago, never usually get that in December.
That's probably a midge rather than a mosquito
