Re: Oi! What's all This Daily Mail?
Unlike 'The Times' it is still available to read for free on t'internet. Is there a problem with 'The Daily Mail'?

Re: Oi! What's all This Daily Mail?
I never quite figured out the difference between 'The Daily Mail' and 'The Express'.
It's a shame 'The Thunderer' has gone pay as you go. That leaves 'The Telegraph', 'The Independent', 'The Guardian', Channel 4 News and a couple of free articles in the 'FT' a month in which to glean what's happening in the world outside of the enchantment of suburbia.

A populist approach means the Mail site set gets a lot of hits on the internet.
So much so that, according to Private Eye, the Telegraph is now trying to emulate its success

What I really like about 'The Telegraph' are the comments from the readers, a rather opinioted punch. Much more interesting then what you get in 'The Guardian'.

The DT is the only paper, even my liberal-voting wife agrees - and that's quite a feat. I used to like The Observer on Sundays but The Daily Mail?! Isn't it six feet right of The Sun? Zig Heil!!

NJS perhaps you would like to create your own Daily Mail headlines?

Re: Oi! What's all This Daily Mail?
this is brilliant and i only have a vague idea of what the daily mail is. i, for one, am tired of the french devaluing my children.
I brush my teeth with minty paste/I hate when Liquor goes to waste.

The Sunday Sport, also had editorials by Shaun Ryder and Bez.
A great periodical to locate the dirtiest, heroin addicted and filthiest flea ridden whores in the wrong end of town imaginable.

Exactly, all this was in the adverts on the back pages. On the front they were running down the celebrities who had used them.
