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.

Trans kids glue posters onto the Equalities Minister's office (transkidsdeservebetter.org)

In the early hours of the morning, some young trans+ activists visited Bridget Phillipson's office, making clear demands to her as the Minister for Women and Equalities against the EHRC guidance.

The activists put up posters, expressing that "Trans Kids Deserve Better than Bridget." The posters were strategically glued with wheatpaste, and taped with duct tape onto the shutter of the front door, and the wall. Unfortunately, there was a police presence before the third poster could go up, which would have demanded her to "DROP THE EHRC GUIDANCE."
