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.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Junior doctors and consultants in England are to coincide strikes during the autumn in an escalation of the pay row with the government.
Alongside junior doctors and consultants, nurses, ambulance workers, physios and radiographers have all also taken part in strikes.
Sir Julian Hartley, chief executive at NHS Providers, which represents health managers, said the co-ordinated action was a "serious escalation" of the dispute.
"We now face the grim prospect of another six months of walkouts from junior doctors, which will pile even more pressure on the NHS this winter, causing yet more disruption for patients.
Health Secretary Steve Barclay said the ballot result was "extremely disappointing" and would weigh heavily on the rest of the workforce and patients who were both "shouldering the brunt of the BMA's relentless strike action".
