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.

Lmfaooo fucking Chabad...

Literally one of the main reasons Russian invade Ukraine in 2022 was to prevent the Ukrainian civil trial against the former owners of PrivatBank, who had been laundering shit tons of Russian money, and much of it went to Chabad charities in the UK, Europe, and south-east US (particularly Delaware). They bought up loads of land. There were other trials in Delaware and the UK, these were postponed in lieu of the Ukrainian trial (where discovery would surely uncover more details than anywhere else) - billed to be the trial of the year, if not the decade - which was scheduled for summer 2022.
