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.

Ok ok I'll accept all this "explanation" but what I'd also like to know is when fruit like apples - grown in the UK - have shrunk in size, increased by something like 100%+ and begin to rot as soon as you get them home. You could (just about) put up with massive hikes in prices because of "explanation" but prices plus increasingly worse quality of food is beyond unacceptable. We're being ripped off here in the UK.
Probably been sat in storage too long. Apples are sold all year round but they are only harvested once per year. And don't think that in season you'll be getting fresh ones, they'll be straight into storage while you eat the year old stock.
