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.

It sounds from the article like some EDL members walked in off the street for a drink, as opposed to booking it out for their meeting/rally. I can see why the bar manager chose not to refuse service or kick them out - he might have got his head kicked in by a drunk mob of thugs after all. Still, sacking an asian employee for being freaked out by them was uncalled for, even if she was swearing.
Either way, their beer is overpriced.
