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.

Economists saw a politician with a career shorter than the lifespan of lettuce and thought "this is a person who will represent our position!"
Who is trusting or even listening to these people? Ignore any economist who doesn't use a Keysian approach.
Sunak is listening to them. This is why Hunt is proposing to give tax cuts to the well off in the next budget. We seriously could be looking at yet another UK meltdown before we can remove this lot.
