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.

Of course, of course. Every time. Just like those tax cuts for the rich always pay for themselves.
I've never seen a company cutback its way back to success. I've seen them successfully use it to stem the bleeding to buy time for new business but that's it.
My point being that the economy isn't suffering in any significant way because we've got a few people out of work. If we can't afford to carry them then we have bigger problems.
Shouldn’t the people who represent us in government at the highest level have - I dunno - some experts to explain how the economy works to them?
