    Thank you! I thought you were claiming “vaccines cause autism and mad cow disease.” If you can recall the title of the doc, please drop it, I’d love to see it, in due time.

    Thanks again.

      I did wonder what people were thinking I was saying, haha, but I accept I must’ve just written it clumsily.

      Here’s the documentary on youtube, it’s actually a standout example of investigative journalism: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UbL8opM6TM

      And there’s this youtube video essay based on it which sexes it up a bit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BIcAZxFfrc

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.
