United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [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.

Realistically it's not just people who genuinely want to help Ukraine over there, but scum that just comes to fuck shit up and want to live their video game fantasies. No doubt there are a number of POS among the volunteers.
I distinctly remember a situation where American volunteers executed a surrendering, unarmed Russian soldier to the horror of the European volunteers in the group and leading to the rest of the Russians stopping their surrender and going out fighting instead: https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/10phb3z/rcombatfootage_believes_they_can_handle_the_truth/
There is a big difference in attitude that is taught between the American and European armies.
