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.

Does reaction to the National Rejoin March demonstrate its success? - [Opinion] (web.archive.org)

It seems odd that a democratic protest in the UK against the direction the country is taking, which is of great interest around the world, should not be considered worthy of a mention on UK TV news bulletins.

With no Brexit Benefits apparent and with changing demographics playing a natural part, the move back to the EU seems inexorable. “It’s going to happen anyway, so why delay?” as Professor A C Grayling said in his speech at the march.

Not really. It is hardly like this iols the first time. Or a notably large protest. We remainers have been trybg to change mimds since the referendum. It has done luttle to change minds. People may feel let down. But most who actually supported brexit. Just think we did it wrong.

Simple answer is there is ko wasy way to cancel rhis now. It means rejoining. And unfortunatly that will not happen with much much more support. No 50 % devide is goibg to work Because the EU will need much more then that to trust us.

News ouraide the UK is always looking for interest. In the UK most know we cannot simply rejoin. So such news just isnt news here.

Most are just fed up with the while thing. British media has nothing to sell via such news. Why would they bother publishing more worthless crap.
