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.

You're just repeating your assertion that the time taken for Ofcom to act against X is due to improper influence but haven't given any evidence. What examples are you thinking of where Ofcom has acted quickly? This controversy has, I believe, been going on for three weeks, prominently only for one.
The Online Safety Act specifies time limits for responses from services, and those time limits themselves vary from a week to several months. Ofcom also publishes updates on its investigations and the one I'm familiar with - Imgur - took months to do anything.
Take me through your line of reasoning here: I don't think Ofcom is giving Twitter special treatment; ???; therefore I'm making excuses for CSAM? Please do fill in the missing steps.
