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 wouldn't normally post Times articles but they seem to be the first to run this bit of rare good news.

Drop the OSA, free all the non-violent protesters, drop the threat to Jury trials, and publicly apologise for being a complete fascist cunt. Then, maybe they deserve a second chance.

And stop sending weapons to israel

That was already stopped a while ago.

E: are people angry that it stopped?

Why do you still tell this lie. I put you straight on this a while back. Some 30 licenses were suspended in 2024, hundreds of licenses are still active. The UK still arms Israel.
You claimed this before, and I showed you the evidence that you were wrong. You are still repeating the claim. You are a liar.

[–] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world -1 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

No you didn't. You just kept lying.

[–] crapwittyname@feddit.uk 4 points 22 hours ago

Here's the proof, again. You abject liar.
