United Kingdom
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.

People do this sort of thing all the time all because they don't like the look of it, it's blocking their light, or ruining their view. So I don't understand why people are losing their shit over a single tree when old trees are cut down everyday for entirely selfish reasons. They're the same thing.
Some trees are entire ecosystems by themselves. It's no wonder we're one of the most nature countries in the world.
You surely can understand that this is a culturally significant tree to many people? That's like if stone henge was knocked down and you said "rocks get knocked over every day"
It's a colossally dense take but it's also from the person who described us as the "most nature country"
Sorry, I meant nature depleted
It was. Just not recently.
It also looks like bits are still coming back these days:

do you really not understand, or just being daft?
Option B.
