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.

He argued dog owners with fewer dogs were often less able to control them.

...

"Two Labradors came over that were totally out of control, whereas we noticed in the corner of the field there was a man on his own with about 25 beagles. Those beagles did not move."

Can we do something about the man dragging 25 dead beagles through a field?

That's a lot of beagles.

Those beagles did not move.

Beagles were bred to trail animals.

Labrador retrievers were bred to go after birds that get shot out of the sky.

You have a bunch of balloonists land what's basically the world's biggest bird in a field and the Labradors go bonkers and the beagles don't care.

I feel like all parties involved probably acted about as one might expect.
