Rules

1) Do not use personal insults, harass, or use aggressive language against individual users;

2) Do not partake in or defend any form of discrimination or bigotry. Clarifications on this rule can read on the wiki;

3) Do not support or condone illegal or violent activity;

4) Users should engage with the community with honest intentions and in good faith, users should assume the same from other contributors;

4.1) Don't act in a deliberately confrontational manner, make poor quality contributions or fail to engage in good faith.

4.2) Self-promotion & Spam: you should add more than you take. If you want to link to your own subreddit, website or blog, ask the mods for approval first

4.3) Highlighting that a user is breaking the rules will be treated as backseat moderation

4.4) No single-issue posters;

5) Do not arbitrate on user's political ideology. Do not seek to take it upon yourself to decide who does, or doesn't, have the right to define themselves by a certain political identity. This includes trying to gatekeep political or ideological membership. Examples of this are implying members are in the wrong party due to ideology (such as calling others a 'trot' or 'Red Tory' etc) or bad faith questioning of a members 'socialist values'.

6) Editorialising: Submitted links should have a title identical to the source or linked tweet. If in doubt, use a self-text. Submissions or self-texts deemed to be misrepresenting the source, tweet or video will be removed;

6.1) Users should not post more than 2 links from the same source in one day;

7) Non-members and members of other political parties are welcome to discuss their views and are to be treated no differently to anyone else;

8) Discussion of moderation should be raised by mod mail or in separate submissions, not in comment sections;

9) Twitter Restrictions & Social Media: Direct links to tweets or screencaps of tweets are banned. The discussion of noteworthy tweets can be done via a self-post.

9.2) Users are directly responsible for the content of social media posts they link to in the subreddit, and all subreddit rules apply to social media content linked.

10) All of Reddit's site rules apply.

11) The rules are guidelines, and breaking the spirit of the rules will be treated as if it is breaking the rules.

If for any reason you disagree with a moderating decision, please send a private message to /r/LabourUK (mod mail) and it will be reviewed by one or more members of the mod team different to the original moderator.
