Seeing as it is "the most wonderful time of the year" and because the sub has slowed down since we moved to a restricted model we're going to open the sub up.

It's a time for merriment, getting hot under the collar at the Xmas do, exchanging lingering glances with a stranger across a crowded bar.

So let's bring some of that energy to r/UK_Affairs

From today until 10th December at 5pm anyone will be able to post, please acquaint yourself with the sub rules as they will still apply and anyone breaking them will have their post removed or be banned (depending on what rules are broken).

Moderation is still a manual process here so please don't immediately repost something if it is removed (we've had that a lot in the past).

Finally, if you post and you like it here, please become verified as an approved user so you can still post once the event ends - see our pinned post labelled [Important] for directions on how.
