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.

Well in this case what's the ulterior motive?

I do think children would be more protected if they could find a way to just ban porn from being viewed made or sold here, but the age-verification seems like enough in that regard (and the former idea is overreach, so 'boo', but would also help adults with porn problems).

Idk what the ulterior motive is, but if your goal is to protect children this is like the third or fourth least damaging porn of all. Like ban all other fetishes first
