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:
Amazon and eBay have removed a super-hot tortilla chip linked to the death of an American teenager from sale.
Amazon said it would remove the product from its sites in the US, Britain, Europe, the Middle East and Africa after BBC Newsbeat contacted the firm.
Snack-maker Paqui claims that the single tortilla, sold in a coffin-shaped box, contains a blend of "the hottest peppers available".
It's thought the popularity of the challenge has inspired lots of teenagers to purchase the product, which carries a warning label, to try it for themselves.
In a further statement sent to Newsbeat, a Paqui spokesperson said: "We are deeply saddened by the death of Harris Wolobah and express our condolences to the family.
In the UK, safety and hygiene regulator the Food Standards Agency (FSA), told Newsbeat it's working to find out where the product is sold.
