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 hate that the member prices don't show the unit rates. I prefer to buy in bulk where it works out cheaper for some things and it's impossible now without taking a calculator.

Even before, they were trying to prevent you comparing without a calculator - e.g. every type of M&S tomatoes has price per kilogram except for the cheap ones which have price per item.

Yep, this - deal prices as well. It should be the law that all prices, promotions and deals must show the per-unit price as well. Also they should just standardise on per 100g for everything. I hate the “per biscuit” or “per serving (35g)” unit prices
