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.

Oh, I dont know.. Maybe the broken economy, the rise in ethno nationalism, right wing populism, overpricing because avarice, stupid investments and purile denial?
But that may change if Count Binface wins in Clackston. He'll build at least 1 affordable house, which is more than these property developers ever have done.
Affordable houses are a scam as well. Most people think it means, a house, that is affordable.
Instead it's usually a shared ownership thing so it's still stupidly priced but you can buy 25% of it.
New development near us the affordable houses were 25% of a 2 bed semi for £100k.
Then you get to pay £800/month rent on the other 75% while being 100% responsible for all the costs and maintenance.
He's not gonna win though right?
I mean he's already achieved the intended effect, but he's not going to get enough votes to win the election.
You're unironically in favor of voting for a bit, but still confident that having a state us the right thing to do.
I dont think the people whod vote for him are angry at the system, they're angry at their choices.
We dont hate the bus, we hate the fact that The Joker is about to get behind the wheel. We want a real bus driver, who knows the route and has passed the relevant exams, but that doesnt seem to be an option for some reason.
Bin it is.
Why does the joker have the keys? Why was the last guy driving the riddler? And Mr. Freeze and so on and so on back into the fucking pendragon dynasty.
