Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]

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.

That's a fair point I hadn't considered.
Out of interest I actually have just looked at how my pension is diversified and almost all of it is incredibly diversified. A lot I'd it is in pharmaceutical companies, and technology companies, but there's even investors in a company that makes things like electric fences and barbed wire, I guess because the barbed wire industry is not going to crash anytime soon.
If we are invested in water companies I can't find them, so they mustn't be a very significant percentage. And anyway why would they be? This scandal has been going on for so long that any pension management companies would have long since sold.
