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.

Dafuq people be defending a guy who forces his dog to sit on hours in one place and then shocks it when dog wants to strech it's bones.
Fuck Elon and the Hasan ban is unfair. But seeing people saying that shock collar is a ruse - that is an incredible mental gymnastics to achieve. Props to yall ig.
This is the dumbest imagined controversy.
Yeah no idea why on Lemmy how no one can criticize him. He very clearly abused his dog and whenever I ask people why they're downvoting they never provide any valid reason why they don't think it was animal abuse. I used to like him— now I can't.
Anything's possible when you make shit up
Bunch of mental gymnastics medalists put here.
Nobody with a halfway functioning brain is buying this shit, give up
Maybe he genuinely thought the collar used vibration instead of electricity. In any case it is really not that big of a controversy. The dog seems fairly happy.
