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:
A Met Office yellow warning for heavy rain is in force over much of the nation from Friday night until 06:00 BST on Sunday.
The period of heat for much of the UK is due to warm and humid air originating from north-west Africa and the Canaries, which has set many October records across Europe in recent days.
The Met Office has predicted widespread disruption for the west coast, parts of the central belt and the Highlands including Glasgow, Stirling and Fort William.
"While the cooler conditions in Scotland this weekend may bring on the autumn colours, overall it looks like temperatures will largely be at or above normal in most areas," he explained.
As low pressure systems dominate to the west and north-west of the UK, parts of western Scotland especially could continue to experience above-average rainfall."
Unseasonal warm weather is likely to become more common due to climate change, which is having an increasing impact on all parts of the UK.
