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.

Hahaha. But yeah it's not being banned because of that obviously. Just thought it would be interesting to add.
I don't buy that they are banning it because of people getting high. That makes not one iota of sense while alcohol is still legal and much more harmful to your health.
This really is just another instance of boomers trying to get one last fuck you in to their children and grandchildren before they walk out the door.
"Restrict it's usage" lmao, no. The restrictions on alcohol are not comparable in any universe to the restrictions on illegal drugs that you can literally be put into prison for using.
It literally does not matter that N2O is not perfectly harmless because nothing is, you absolute rube. There are OTC products massively more dangerous that will never be banned because the demographics that tend to use them aren't widely maligned by the rich, old pieces of shit in power. That includes alcohol.
Fuck you if you think your right to not have to smell weed or whatever in public makes it okay to throw people into prison.
