Ben just a general question for the avoidance of future doubt

I understand you have banned political posts. Is non-uk current events also banned?

Just wondering what the guidelines are and how you are determining what posts are considered political or not.

For instance is it possible to talk about covid-19 as long as we don't refer to the government,NHS funding/ppe, daily briefings.

I suppose that Brexit is off limits.

Also anything to do with teachers pensions and train drivers / train guards.

What is the scope regarding over the pond.

Is there going to be a report button where we can report posts we believe to be political so that they can be examined by an Algorithm like Twitter or Facebook?

What about posting links to articles from popular newspapers which may not be political but may contain references to people within the political spectrum.

Just wondered what the limits are that's all.
