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.

Or no honey
Much cheaper but doesn't help my throat when sick
From TFA, if you aren't buying local then you aren't buying honey anyway.
Might as well buy a sweet to suck on.
Yeah I do buy local
The statements were
If you are buying local then you've already satisfied the first half of the OR. It's an option, if you aren't prepared to buy local then don't buy but also not buying honey at all is an option instead of buying honey.
Buying non-local mass produced honey is not an option, and won't help you with a sore throat any more than sucking on a sweet will, and you aren't likely to be buying honey anyway.
They are making it anyway and supporting bees is good for the world.
It's a little more complicated than that unfortunately. Supporting bees is much more than just supporting honey bees.
