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.

Could an intergalactic space warrior become the #UK's newest member of #parliament? Now that he is the only likely challenger to Nigel #Farage's seat in the #Clacton-on-Sea by-election, the chances of him entering the House of Commons have never been this high.

Well, i could say something, but Brazil have elected a lot of nuts military, a unfunny circus clown, a astronaut, a failed soap opera actor, a ex-porn actor, a cocain vacuum cleaner trunk driver (not the only one on that stuff obviously), a mental ill guy who think he was from swat and a guy famous for a online tutorial than how shave his asshole...

Also a black gay kid, who is racist and homophobic

With a cast that strong I'm really annoyed that most posts are The Trump Show.
