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:
Farming groups have also criticised its close relationship with supermarkets, when farmers have felt ripped off by rising prices not being passed down the supply chain to their struggling businesses.
Shadow ministers say they would take on big businesses by handing out criminal sanctions to chief executives who run polluting companies, and fixing the supply chain so farmers are paid a fair price for food sold in supermarkets.
Labour sources said fighting for justice for neglected rural communities, who have had their local areas polluted, and been ripped off by big businesses such as supermarkets, was a key part of their election campaign.
Reed also promised to expand the powers of regulator Ofwat so that water bosses who fail to meet high environmental standards on sewage pollution will have their bonuses blocked.
A report released last year by the charity Sustain found farmers were making less than a penny for every loaf of bread or block of cheese sold in supermarkets.
This issue has been raised by experts over the past two years, where food shortages due to the climate crisis, as well as spiralling costs, have highlighted problems with the supply chain.
