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.
I wish there was an opposite thing we could do. Like a fundsinker that would cost him money.
A fund-lowerer
How does raising money help? He's already been sentenced, so it's not going to go in for legal defenses. And he's a dangerous individual and therefore unlikely to be eligible for parole.
Seems like a great big nothing burger really.
Also where did his idiot friend come up with 1 grand from? That is not a large amount of money.
Seems to just be the standard grift by the family to try and pocket some free money.
It's for his family.
To you maybe.
No it's not a large amount of money to anyone. We all live in the same economy we all have to pay for the same basic things. It's less 1 months minimum wage. Seems like a very strangely picked limit likely by chosen by someone that doesn't actually know the value of money and thinks it's a lot.
It's a lot of money if you haven't got any.
Don't agree with that fundraiser though. They may just have wanted a new iPhone.
Capaldi? He's not related to Doctor Who is he?
