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 usually say such things to such individuals not as a way to bring them out of their obvious delusion, but as a way to highlight said delusion to others that read it afterwards.

Top tip: When you quote someone don't cut off "...not as a way to..." at the start of a quote.

I'm doing this not as a way of bringing you out of your obvious delusion but to highlight it for people reading later.

Holy fucking reading comprehension, Batman. To be fair ( to be FAIR!), I'm seriously impressed at your writing skills, considering you're an obvious goldfish.
