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.

Is Palestine Action a specific movement/group or is palestine Action literally just supporting Palestine? Asking from a non UK perspective.
It's a specific group that recently broke into an RAF base and started mucking about with the aircraft, hence why the government aren't their biggest fans.
Shortly after they did this they were designated as a terrorist group by the home office which is why public support is an offence.
Are the protestors with signs saying they support palestinian action intending to state that they support the group or that they support action generally?
Either way they've manufactured this issue to protest anti-terrorism laws right?
Not sure if would die on this hill.
'Palestine Action' definitely refers to the group, otherwise you'd just put 'Palestine'. I don't think they did this to protest ant-terrorism laws, they've been very focused on targeting the genocide in Palestine so starting a new off-topic fight wouldn't make sense for them.
