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.

I've done it for years since they changed my polling station without me realising and it was a scramble to make it to the other one on time.

Were you waiting until 10pm to vote? 🤣

Reminds me of the time I saved my Duolingo streak literally at 23:59:59. The app glitched out and displayed it as extended for both the day I did it on and the day the streak screen rendered on. A refresh of the app showed that it only counted for the previous day, so it worked regardless 🤣
