They say 'MeatLiqor bar in west London' and then show pictures of ED. They also describe 'HUGE queues' accompanied with a picture of about 6 - 7 people. All this is 'evidence that the lockdown is breaking'. Daily mail innit.

If the Mail could lie about this what else are they lying about!

I quite enjoyed this comparison on the Daily newspapers - not sure how objective it is but it scored the Mail as the worst and usefully give the source of the alternative name the Daily Hate: Alarmist headlines", providing "daily hate" according to former owner Lord Northcliffe. "More than any other newspaper in Britain, it deals in falsehood and distortion.

Staunchly right-wing. Populist, rabidly conservative, anti-Europe, anti-immigration, anti-taxation, anti-abortion, anti-permissive, concocted moral outrages18. Alastair Campbell said: "It's very hard to see how we can be happy as a nation when every day two million people buy the Daily Mail"

The review looks quite old and I am sure has some bias, but I am not letting that get in my way. The Morning Star is scored as neutral and the review doesn't have any more to say. http://www.humantruth.info/uk_newspapers_comparison.html

Reach took over the Express and have purposely kept it as it was.

Extremely pro-brexit (unlike Reach's main paper The Mirror), pretty reactionary and right wing and it even predicts snowstorms all winter assuming one day it'll be right. Almost as if Desmond never left.

There have been several fake news stories about people ignoring social distancing in the right wing papers of late. A photo in the Express of a packed Brighton Beach (actually taken last summer) and several others which have been photo shopped, or distorted using a long lens. Makes me wonder what the agenda is?

Blame Matt Hancock ? You have to give him credit for putting his head consistently above the parapet - even if he gives me shivers.
