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.

I’ve heard that the problems are about moving around the area itself. The links to central London are good but moving laterally is harder. I’m not familiar with the area myself so I don’t know how true that is.

I used to commute by public transport in that area from high Wycombe to chalfont at Giles 15-20min walk at each end but nothing unsurmountable, some of my colleagues refused saying it was too far from tha station.

Problems are likily to be if you use the m25 and get off your spur, so like Uxbridge to st albans or Uxbridge to Leatherhead then I can see going through the center is a pain. But if public transport is not good enough in one of the best connected cities in the world we are never going to solve the problem.
