Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, 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. (These things should be publicly discussed)

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.

Emergency services have cordoned off the area surrounding Big Ben after a man scaled one of the buildings in the Palace of Westminster.

Video on social media shows a barefoot man stood on a ledge holding a Palestinian flag several metres up Elizabeth Tower, which houses the Westminster clock and its world-famous bell.

At least nine emergency service vehicles lined Bridge Street in central London and crowds looked on from beyond a police cordon.

Yeah we do, and we are one of it's second largest supporters. Uk is the other nation other than America actively using it's military to aid Israel, selling weapons of mass destruction to them and so on. Uk is fully complicit and now while orange man destorys all alliances, we need Europe to see the humanity of Palestine cause they may do something now
