United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
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:
When the couple adopted the twins, a court ordered that council-run children's services should provide them with 77 hours of support a month, split between Jack and Chloe.
NHS Somerset told the BBC it appreciates "this has been a very worrying time for Jack's family" and that it is "sorry if the assessment process and the outcome of the appeals have caused them additional distress".
NHS England says the threshold for screening people for funding is at a low level to ensure a full assessment is done, but most who apply won't be eligible.
The story is even starker for under-18s - with eligibility rates ranging from 14% to 96% in 2022-23, according to data obtained from 33 of 42 NHS Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), who run the schemes.
Since we first contacted NHS Humber and North Yorkshire ICB, it has agreed to another 16 hours support for Andrew at weekends, but problems finding care staff mean it hasn't started yet.
