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.

Remember folks. Liberals and centrists would rather deal with conservatives over a progressive party.
Liberal Democrats cozy up to Conservatives. I don't think Labour have.
They don't need to. There's a reason everyone calls them the Tory Lite party. It's all the fault of Blair and his new Labour ideas, if you cannot win by being liberal then don't be liberal. It's a stupid idea because what's the point in winning then?
