The BBC is in trouble with the ICO for failing to provide call logs showing whether the corporation’s top brass have been conferring with Israeli officials during the Gaza genocide. Harriet Williamson reports.

        I feel like there’s room for pushing back against antisemitism while also being wholeheartedly against zionism (fuck Israel so very very much). In this case I don’t personally read OP’s comment as suggesting jewish people are enemies of humanity, but I can certainly see how someone could see it as a dogwhistle for antisemites, even though it doesn’t read that way to me

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.
