General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
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 seems like the most sensible option. I'm sure the guidelines seemed reasonable when they were first drawn up, presumably to stop cults and shysters feeding the kids inappropriate food but if turkey twizzlers met the meat requirement then the guidelines weren't really doing their job.
So they need guidelines on the amounts of protein, fibre, and calcium, as well as a restriction on UPFs.
Ofsted inspections now check what food is being offered, so it would be easy enough to ensure children are getting a healthy, balanced diet without being so proscriptive as to the sources of the nutrition.
