First time I came to England before moving here there were still the small, fat pound coins. When I came back a few years ago I thought I was experiencing some weird Mandela effect

The entire country was scandalised, until we were reassured that the new pound coins would still work in trolley locks.

I brought some cash I still had, tried to get in the bus from the airport and was told what I had wasn't legal money. Shit was confusing, went to a cash point really close by and got to see the bus leave without me.

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.
