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.

Well we have several on market street (probably what most people would think of as the high street) in Manchester, but perhaps that's probably the exception rather than the rule compared to most of the rest of the country.
Yeah, I think they do still have some of them in most city centres, which kind of makes sense (if you were closing 95% of your branches, those are the ones you'd keep) - though it's a long way from when there used to be a few different branches in every town centre, and amongst the small local rows of shops in housing areas i.e. the local high street.
