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.

This. Exactly.
Need to top up their executives' pay somehow.
Really love how they never consider cutting their board's pay.
Let it run out. Businesses should be allowed to fail. That's capitalism.
If the state want to buy the assets for a bargain price, so much the better. We'll be thankful for it in the long run.
Yep, how can the benefits of competition and reward play out if there's no punishment for failure.
Capitalism for the poor, Communism for the rich.
