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.

🎼 The Workers on the S.P. line to strike sent out a call

🎼 But Casey Jones, the engineer, he wouldn't strike at all

🎼 His boiler it was leaking, and its drivers on the bum,

🎼 And his engine and its bearings, they were all out of plumb.

🎶

🎼 Casey Jones kept his junk pile running

🎼 Casey Jones was working double time

🎼 Casey Jones got a wooden medal,

🎼 For being good and faithful on the S.P. Line.
