United Kingdom
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.

I don't know, your wall idea seems pretty good.
I'm certain that a lot of the problems in this country stems from the fact that everything is in London. In the US you've got loads of major cities other than the capital, this forces politicians to actually be aware of local problems (not that it's working very well right now).
In the UK everything's in London. In the US if a major show happens you assume it's going to be in New York or LA, not Washington.
So we're doing the wall thing and then we're moving government out of the capital, let's see how interested they are in improving the economy and social housing when they're forced to do everything from Bradford or Middlesbrough.
