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.

Stripping the copper out of the walls.
It's the conservative way. Then once they're out, they can immediately start to complain about why the government hasn't put out said fires.
This won't go anywhere. It takes absolutely ages to do these investigations, I can't imagine the conservative government will last that long. Besides the oil companies will highly suspect drilling licenses will be denied when Labour are in government, so they're not going to spend the money on the investigations if they're pretty confident they won't be allowed to actually drill.
This is just him showing everyone how massively Tory he is to all the upstanding voters that have left for reform (please come back, we need the scumbag vote).
