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.

Potentially, but they don't use water straight from the ground/river these days it's all purified and minerals readded anyway. That said Molson-Coors isn't good for UK brewing.

That seems like an unnecessary cost when they can just turn the tap on

Molson-Coors not good for UK brewing, but the water in Burton-On-Trent is up there with the best (take your point on water being purified though).

Burton snatch anyone?
