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.
This is such a school boy take on how the UK forms governments it's laughable. Labour did exactly this in 2007. Where were the cries of holding to account then? Brown held onto power for three extra years. The fact of the matter is that this is how the UK forms a government. Both sides use this to their advantage to hold onto power.
What we need is proportional representation to force these clowns to work sensibly with each other. Too bad Labour have gone cold on the idea.
Edit: typos
Didn't Gordon Brown build a surplus, only to be called out as a scrooge by the tabloid? Feels like you just cant win.
