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.

Wait until the next "price cap" in three months... and the one after that in six months... and the one after that in nine months (that'll raise the cap even higher). It's a con-game and we're the suckers.
We'll have a clean grid by 2030, the reliance on gas will be minimal when renewables are providing energy at zero marginal cost. With renewables the fuel is free and predictable over a 25 year period.
Still need a nuclear base load, preferably thorium.
And, of course, energy prices will fall incredibly and they'll never be the need for price caps ever again and the "clean" nuclear waste can be recycled into toys and distributed to children to play with in this New Jersusalem.
Not sure you can call depleted uranium shells toys, but I suppose it depends on your perspective
