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.

Makes one wonder if she was talking about powerful people that run governments?
If the BBC are covering it that means there's nothing to the story.
The BBC is regime propaganda and not in the business of speaking truth to power.
speaking truth to power
God I hate this phrase. It's an Americanism that has bled into British culture and now politics. Utterly meaningless. Achieves nothing but making people feel like their making progress but aren't at all.
Oi M8 ur a cunt!
Dave, woah. What are you doing?
Speaking truth to power, innit.
The truth element is so broad it could apply to anything and the power bit is so vague it could also refer to anyone. Bland catchphrase politics. Yuk.
The BBC push narratives that don't upset people in power. Is that better?
Power = Politicians, royal family, billionaires, media owners, business interests.
So if they're covering a story then it has been sanitised by editors and checked to ensure that no one with power is offended.
Yes. And sorry for being snappy. It's been a hard week 😔.
No worries. Hope your week gets better.
