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.

The problem here is clearly the disturbingly low barrier to entry to gimphood, and its single, shared status. The reputation of a hypothetical Honorable Brotherhood of Essex Gimps wouldn't be besmirched by the appalling behavior of some Somerset rogue.
