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 matching is usually done with a maximum percentage of your salary.
Some employers might offer 3%, for example.
So if at that company you earn £24,000, pay 10% into your pension each month (£200), the company contributes £60, and you don't pay income tax on the money that went to the pension (probably £40 savings).
Which means that if you decide to just take the money instead, you'd only see £160 instead of £260 in your pension.
