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.

They need to build more high density housing downtown. That requires government intervention to force buy the land and tell the NIMBYers and people that want endlessly increasing housing prices to fuck off. That way there is alternatives and people can get modern homes that are actually at market value rather than artificially inflated. The huge amount of immigration is just making things worse.

A LVT like Wales are bringing in would also help.

We live in a pretty mild climate very little heating is actually required to keep mould away it just requires proper ventilation and insulation.
