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.

That's why companies that get privitised are so keen to issue dividends and bonuses: If it turns out there has been shit going on, the dividends are long gone, and it's extremely difficult to claw them back.
Bunch of utter bastards. Issue massive dividends, saddle the companies with massive debt, then wait for the implosion that gets bailed out by the govt. So either the money lenders or the taxpayer pick up the tab.
I completely agree with your position, and surely that's the one that should be taken by the regulators.
But it isn't.
