These harsh economic times mean that certain commitments can’t be honoured in the way we always thought they would be. Taxes raised, funding cut, etc. etc. Unfortunately, that includes our wish to keep KM UK freely available to all. We had always hoped to bring you the very best content for no charge but it is proving impossible.
KM UK has been running for nearly four years and during that time we have not placed any advertising on the site or asked for any kind of donation from you, our loyal readers. Sadly this has to come to an end.
Running a site like this costs tens of thousands of pounds per year. The large technical team behind the scenes have families to feed. The super computer hosting the website needs a small power-station of its own to function. Then there’s the bribes…
All this means that from the beginning of next month KM UK will, to use the vernacular, “go behind a paywall”. It is the way the web is going and has to be said initially: access per registration is leaving freely open options lagging. KM UK will 
restricted to paying subscribers only. To view the site you will need to pay for a monthly or yearly subscription. Later a per-article option will be added.
A year-long subscription will cost £100 / €150 / US$200. Monthly subs will be £10 / €15 / US$20. The per-article option is expected to be £1 / €1.50 / US$2. Register early and receive the FIRST MONTH FREE.

Update: Yes, it was KM UK’s April Fool post for this year.
Ha ha… April fool ? I hope So lol
Of course it’s an April fool and it’s crappier than last year.
It’s not even an official site like Miranda Lambert for example. To join her fanclub you need to pay 20 dollar each year.
Also I know how much RichE pays for this site and when he has to pay again and that’s not soon so don’t worry.
Everyone’s a critic.
You really shouldn’t go around making statements like that when you only know, at most, a small part of the whole picture.
Maybe she was April Fooling you???
Are you still going to be on twitter or Face Book?
Mary, it’s an April fool. No worries.
April Fool’s,too u to!! LOL
You “nuckleheads”(British) came up with April Fool Days! So you British are experts at April Fooling people. I just read the history of April Fools and I wasn’t surprised that u lot came up with April Fools. Don’t worry I am not knocking the British.
