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.

Of course not; in the eyes of Tories, all Muslims have brown skin, which is BAD. But Jews are white, so that's "good".

I cannot comprehend how Kemi Badenoch can be okay with racist policies. It's like gay Republicans in the US, I guess... Crazy cognitive dissonance.

Surely the leopards wouldn't eat my face...

This is the same woman who ranted about how immigrants need to "earn" their right to be here.

She "earned" her right to be here by having rich parents who just came here to have her born in a private UK hospital so she could get a UK passport, then bogged off back to Nigeria.

This woman has zero self awareness. I wonder if anyone has challenged her over that hypocrisy yet.

It's pretty simple. They don't care about Jews either. They simply use antisemitism as a weapon to censor criticism of Israel.

How about those who attack, harass and intimidate anyone? What about a law that says you have an automatic probation period. If you're not a citizen, any law you break results in deportation?

If you go to another country, you better make damned sure you obey the law and behave in a civil manner. If I moved somewhere, I would fully expect to be thrown out when I behave like an idiot.

Does "antisemitic" here mean "not approving of genocide", by any chance?

How about we just deport Kemi?

It's obviously not bad enough for her tastes
