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.

Rich vs working class, not boomers vs millennials or whatever garbage you’re trying to push.
Boomers are the rich, that's the whole point.
They lived through the largest economic boon in history and kept it all for themselves.
Yeah fuck their kids too but let's not forget who is perpetuating this system and it ain't young people.
Hell the "young" candidate this election is 60!!!
Millennials are children of boomers. Boomers were having children up to the late 90s. You cast a very wide net.
lol seriously though. They should enforce a retirement age of 65 in politics. These geriatric pieces of shit need to go.
Actually there is some truth to this SPECIFICALLY with Boomers. After the War, Western countries rebuilt economic powerhouses up to a certain point, after which the ladder was pulled up. Boomers had more opportunities than any generation before or after them.
I just have a hard time blaming the boomers who protested shit like that for the sins the ones who supported imperialist capitalist interests of the time.
