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.

The court was told the mother concealed the baby's presence from her siblings by hiding her in the drawer of her divan bed, and kept her secret from her partner, who often stayed at the house.

So no-one else in the house knew? That seems unlikely.

Especially considering she says she never closed the drawer??

Even if she kept the kids out, her partner can't have missed it, even if the it's a lie about leaving the drawer open. After all, a visitor heard the child from downstairs.
