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 is also very flawed.
They assigned 3 extra years to the boomer group to make it look bigger. All the culture groups have 15 years; boomers have 18. It is true that there were more born during those years, but by the time they hit 18, it was the same average per year as other groups.
By 2010 boomers were not even the highest or second highest aggregate. The highest was gen X by quite a way.
They omit that people have always voted less when they are young. The idea that boomers voted to rape the country during the Thatcher years holds no water.
