Comment on I went to the UK last week. Nothing about my trip was legal.
Skua@kbin.earth 19 hours agoI expect that it's straying much too close to dicussion of the ongoing hot-button political issue of asylum seekers and small boat crossings for Casual UK's "no politics" rule. Glad you could still post it here without re-typing it though

I'm pretty sure it's because I mention that I support Palestine Action, which although it's not a central point in the post is a pretty hot political potato in the UK at the moment. Fair enough. :)

I’m guessing that - from my experience of the CasualUK community when I used to be on Reddit - they have similar rules of ABSOLUTELY no politics. Even something that might lead to politics.
It’s to keep the place extremely light hearted and not turn into a depressing news/politics community.
So immigration/border policy and Palestine Action would both be out.
Even jokes about small boats would likely be too close.
It is a fun story, glad you shared it. And good on the mods recommending an alternative community
