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.

Does he any mandate for this? I wish they'd stop messing with the education system, and focused on teachers more.

Books, syllabus are all great, but the most vital part in education is the teacher. We pay them peanuts.. And we all know what you get when you pay peanuts.

Why do so many prime minsiters feel they need to make a lasting legacy on education?

Why? If you still doing the test who cares what one you do. Seems like a pointless announcement just to say they are doing something.
