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.

All? Not all. One ~~village of indomitable Gauls~~ station remains in private ownership, and that’s St Pancras. All other stations are owned by Network Rail and have been since 2002.
Technically St Pancras is still state owned, but it's on a long-term lease to a private consortium. Once the lease expires it'll revert to direct state ownership too, it's just that that's got quite a long time horizon on it compared to the TOC franchises (still another 15 years away yet).
