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.

Makes me like them more! Sometimes you just got to be online and if the management just require presenteeism then you get this. If theres good management that require output but realise we are humans who sometimes need to chill out for a time, this isn't an issue. If they're doing this all the time so there's no output, that's on the management really. In the office it would be tea breaks, chatting to colleagues, the general chat at the start or end of meetings, going for breaks, etc
