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.

If they make waving Palestinian flags in Jewish neighbourhoods a crime (and there is a case for it being a public order offence), they should also make waving Israeli flags in neighbourhoods with large Arab or Muslim populations an equivalent crime.
Never let a populist opportunity go to waste. Torying rule book 101.
How often does that realistically happen, there aren't cars full of Jews doing laps of Whitechapel with Isreali flags when this kicks off, it's always the other way around.
The tough guys waving Israeli flags aren’t necessarily Jewish; there’s a breed of troll for whom the Israeli flag is a convenient prop
They should make responding violently to flag waving a crime. Except for Nazi flags.
You don't think a Hamas flag represents pretty similar sentiment to the Nazi flag at present?
It could be enforced that way as it is. Whether it would be is a different question.
