MBFC rates LBC.co.uk as right of right-center with mixed factual reporting.

In review, LBC radio primarily broadcasts talk and phone-in type shows. It has several right-wing presenters, such as Iain Dale, a conservative for parliament, and Nick Ferrari. The broadcasting standards commission has criticized him for encouraging racism against asylum seekers. They also had Katie Hopkins, a conservative provocateur, that had to resign over a controversial tweet. Her views are similar to American conservative political commentator Ann Coulter. Recently, conservative Nigel Farage hosted a talk show on LBC. On the left, they have James O’Brien, who describes himself as a “champagne socialist.”

Although this particular article seems okay, best stay clear of linking to them, due to unreliable factuality.

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.
