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.

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.

I really hope parkrun tell these people to go fuck themselves. But also worry about the amount of funding these bullshit lawsuits could have and what it may end up costing parkrun if it doesn't just get thrown out.
I wonder if a part of this isn’t just for the publicity itself so that the sponsors of parkrun get scared and withdraw their support
Maybe I should start running parkruns with a pride flag to show my support. Colourful things isn't really my style though.
