General community for news/discussion in the 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 show was fantastic, I sailed the seas to watch it, and was amazed at just how corrupt and far reaching this scandal is. I was equally amazed that, while I thought it should spur public sentiment, immediately after it airing in the UK, there was uproar all the way up the government to the PM, which seems to have gotten forward movement on compensation. The fact that so many postmasters lost their shops, their savings, and were imprisoned, on such a massive scale, with no one to stand up for them, against a faceless wall of government, and bureaucracy in this day and age is breathtaking. I cannot understand how this could have been allowed to happen past the first instances and revelations that the system was inherently flawed and insecure. So many ruined lives. Insane.
You know it's free to watch on ITVX, right? It just has ads
You need TV licence, so no, not free.
Not for watching catch-up on ITVX. You do need a TV Licence for the BBC iPlayer, however.
