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.

Have you ever dealt with the court of law? You always plead guilty. Always.

There are very, very few scenarios where you dont.

I was a juror on a trial and the guy involved clearly was several chicken nuggets short of a happy meal, like these two, there was mountains of evidence against him including body cam footage from a police officer, and he still pleaded not guilty.

By the way his defence essentially amounted to, there were other people in the area who also had criminal records, so maybe they did it.
