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.

Have you literally never seen an actual socialist discuss politics? *On Lemmy?*

Lol socialists. They are delusional. Can't see basic facts in front of their faces. I should have paid attention to the sub's you go in. You're completely brainwashed. It was apparent when you didn't actually try or want to learn anything from me. You made your mind up and you stuck with it no matter what I said. That is not a healthy mindset, you should work on that. Try see what people are trying to tell, you look at other sides.

Even know you can't even try and think about how anyone would ever change their mind on anything. That's not good.

Yes I have argued with loads. I actually have a degree in economics but none of them want to understand basic economic theory. Like you, they have an opinion and nothing else matters. Not other peoples views, not other countries, not other situations not fact. Nothing all that matters is their brainwashed position is repeated.

For the record, but I know you will live in denial. I believe in high taxes, high government spending, LVT, free education and healthcare, subsidised public transport, subsidised training, externalities in general, house building programmes, in the future UBI, money for families and teens. But all of that is insignificant the mismanagement of immigration the UK currently has, so I'm going to vote for stopping immigration. The other policies can wait.

But lol socialism. I'll die to stop that. What a terrible idea that is.

'I am too a leftie lefting leftist! LOL any actual leftism.'

You are not self-aware.

Yes I have argued with loads. I actually have a degree in economics but none of them want to understand basic economic theory.

I genuinely laughed out loud. You're a fucking cartoon. You have no goddamn idea what you look like from outside your own head.

May we never speak again.

Haha.

Go back to your cave and your ignorance. I'm sure you can find people that will congratulate you on your ignorance and it being the ultimate goal.
