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.

electricity supply is regulated in the UK to the extent that companies cannot make money while fully complying with Ofgem rules, that have matured over the past 40 years or so.
They will either make no profit at all, or end up paying the regulator large fines all the time. I’m fine with this.
Or in true shit company fashion, promise to follow the rules, not follow them, then sue/petition the various bodies that they can't make money unless the rules are removed.
cool but then all the energy companies will be able to do that, so they will:
