So really the Mail is not a quality newspaper, but a paper on a par with the Sun, always trying to create scandals and with little regard for ethics.
Difficult to recommend a paper that bugs people's phones, which could potentially create all kinds of psychological problems for those on the end of it. Pretty evil stuff.

That's just about it but unfortunatly its still popular with the demographic that love the Tories and their ilk, In time though like all other printed news those people will pass and younger ones will get their news online and printed newspapers will end up as a thing of the past. The only difference with The Mail and Sun is that the Sun had T*ts on page 3, The Mail had them writing and editing the paper.

Exactly this. We could ask Tavy to explain why his information source of choice takes such a contradictory approach, but I expect he will choose not to answer
As I’ve said previously, two of my information sources today have been BBC R4 and Sky News.
Go figure.

I see the Sun as being childish, reactionary and something not to be taken seriously. The Mail on the other hand is truly abhorrent, vitriolic, hypocritical, nasty and full of outright malevolent hatred.

Stumbled across GB News last night where the presenter was clearly rather proud of the fact that he couldn't pronounce Eid. Managed about five minutes of his 19th hole banter and flicked over to Al Jezeera which I never normally watch. Its coverage of Ukraine was very thorough and very fair

They hate being reminded of this time when their owner (Rothermere) was a Nazi sympathiser back then.

Have you never heard of the notorious "sidebar of shame" featuring D listed celebs 'dresses split to the hip" or "plunging necklines" used to entice the loyal, male, misogynisticTory geriocracy to their tawdry site?

Still, I suppose it's cheaper than Viagra for the Tavy's of this world.

PS: I suggest we should also add "Angie's Gusset" to the catalogue of hypocritical titillation.

Thought that was The Mail online or do you mean that? Both print and digital are as odious as each other.
