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.

Partial work from home is ridiculous. They fully admit that it isn't necessary to be in the office but at the same time still want to have some kind of control. So they settle for this not at all a reasonable compromise compromise.
If you want to go into the office fine that's your prerogative, but I don't think it's fair to pretend there's some kind of justification for it.
Do they? I don’t think so.
So why are they allowing part-time work then. If working in the office is necessary then surely it is necessary 100% of the time. So if they are allowing anyone to spend some time working outside of the office then clearly they can spend all their time working outside the office.
The managers just don't want them doing that.
Ummmm, no?
That's a deflection. Not a retort.
Because it’s a ludicrous assertion. Just because something is useful on a regular basis, that does mean it is required constantly.
