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.

She reported Declan Morris, a new fitness manager, in June 2022 for carrying out a Ministry of Defence fitness test on someone who had an elevated blood pressure reading, which meant he should not have done it.

She only reported the matter after she had first raised it with him and he reacted in a “hostile manner”.

Ms Littlewood was informed that Mr Morris would have to go through "retraining" to make sure he was carrying out the tests in the right way.

From that month onwards, Mr Morris began withholding three hours of pay a week from Ms Littlewood.
