If you care to look at the "Bottler Brown lies over rescue coaches" thread http://www.filipinouk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24143 you will see a gem just published in the Daily Handwringer
I dimiss almost all newspapers because almost all have a political slant one way or the other, it just so happens that the majority of them happen to lean towards the tories and always have done, in the case of the Daily Mail, quite blatantly so. I prefer to get my news mostly from TV because in general TV news is usually quite balanced, although I must say that many of the presenters and interviewers on Sky News these days might as well wear blue rosettes. But I suppose that's to be expected (Orders from Rupert maybe). I think they should all be made to take lessons from Jeremy Paxman and Jon Snow...... Both of these treat all of our politicians with equal contempt regardless of party.
