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 wonder if the cost of buying food more than doubling in the past five years, while wages have been behind inflation for 40 years has anything to do with this
Given that these are month-on-month figures, no.
Which definitely have no relation to the overarching worldwide impacts of climate change, multiple wars and the multiple cost of living crises that are ongoing. No relation at alllll.
Factors which remain the same from month to month (like climate change, ongoing wars, and cost-of-living crises) necessarily have similar impacts on those different months. Therefore if there's a different impact - in this case seen in volume of goods sold - then that must be due to things that are different between those two month. Surely you agree with that?
worldwide impacts of climate change, multiple wars
You didn't mention these in your first comment.
No way, it's obviously immigrants
