General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
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.

They are not. More to the point they are not legally binding.
But the corps etc recognise that most employees do not have the funds for good legal advice. So use such docs to scare the shit out of victims.
Hence why this law is needed. It basically bans the language in a contract. Honestly I don't think it goes far enough.
Employment contracts that contain any unenforceable clueses should be a crime. Companies should be forced to either use standard safe contracts. Or pay a lawyer to ensure they are not adding unenforceable language.
