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.

Hopefully, if the big bosses of various big companies are indeed in some kind of club with each other, this is where the bosses of the companies that "suffered" have a quiet word with the bosses of the companies that did well in order to ensure the fairer redistribution of wealth. (At their level. Screw everyone else.)
It might mean a levelling of prices back to the same kind of ratio we preferred. The prices very much won't be to our liking unfortunately, but the ratios will be nicer. Hopefully.
And it might mean the greedier C-levels have to sulk about things for a while, instead of the ones that "suffered", which is the only positive that can come out of all of this for the rest of us.
