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.

MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Dr Davies, 29, said: "I've noticed that owners are becoming more and more interested in making sure their animals aren't stressed during the firework period.
"As we're doing repeat prescriptions, this year in particular, I've noticed around a third of them are people requesting medications to get their pet through the Bonfire Night period," he said.
Kate Thomas, owner of Bridgend Doggy Day Care, said she would open her doors to dogs to enjoy a quieter Bonfire Night.
A spokesperson said: "We are working closely with animal welfare and veterinary organisations to amplify this messaging in the run up to, and during key dates when fireworks are commonly used."
The chairman of the British Fireworks Association, Steve Raper, said further legislation was not required and current laws needed to be properly and fully enforced.
Caerphilly, Carmarthenshire, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd, Isle of Anglesey, Neath Port Talbot, Newport, Pembrokeshire, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Swansea, Torfaen and Wrexham council have signed up to implement RSPCA-backed safety measures.
