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.

What is this petition hoping to achieve other than collecting emails and postcodes of people interested in renewables

The Guardian published an article on their shared energy scheme a few months ago, which seems decent value (although £3k for £200/yr savings isn't mind-blowing).

This campaign may be a cynical bid to harvest emails of potential customers but they do mention onshore wind and they may be betting on Labour removing a lot of the Tory restrictions on it and a map of people supporting green energy may help them overcome the NIMBYs.
