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.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
The former soldier Daniel Khalife has pleaded not guilty at the Old Bailey in London to escaping from HMP Wandsworth, where he was on remand after being charged with terrorism offences earlier this year.
He is accused of escaping from prison on 6 September by allegedly strapping himself to the underside of a food delivery vehicle.
Khalife was arrested on a canal towpath in west London at 10.41am on 9 September after being pulled off a push bike by a plainclothes counter-terrorism officer.
He had been in Wandsworth prison awaiting trial after allegedly planting a fake bomb at an RAF base and gathering information that might be useful to terrorists or enemies of the UK.
Mr Justice Jeremy Baker joined the charges and Khalife will be tried at Woolwich crown court on 13 November for all four offences.
He will reappear at the Old Bailey for a review hearing on 13 October, when the trial date may be discussed.
