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.

There’s pretty large evidence of a car theft epidemic tho tbh
This is for Hyundais an Kias mostly tho right? And it's due to them refusing to fix a major flaw making theft trivially easy. Something like that, here's a link I'm too lazy to read but looks related.

And it's not in the UK, as the cars were sold with immobilisers here.
Ah
That'd be personal theft. The police have already signaled they couldn't give less of a shit about that.
