The Times is as left wing as the The Grauniad is right wing.
Do you read the Daily Mail?

The words "Guardian" and "Decent" should not be used in the same sentence.
Reading the Guardian make me rage even more than reading the Daily Mail. At least the Daily Mail is comically stupid and gets some laughs, whereas the Guardian is just ARGH

and my all time fave?
What other paper can deliver on this scale?
BS like that is what gives the paper a bad name - ie idiots like you posting fake front pages/stories to belittle the paper.

Yes of course there is no problem with immigrants in this country what so ever, no need to mention it. In fact if you mention I bet your a bigoted old racist aren't you.

its one of the most pressing yet unresolved problems of the 21st century in the UK

The paper gives itself a bad name, actually – it doesn't even need to be parodied. Did you read the genuine ones, or does your doublethink see no problem with them? They're almost as absurd as the parodies.

I don't really buy the paper that often, but if I do usually I buy the mail or the I.
As much as I dislike the idea of defending a newspaper, I think you're right. The DM does have a habit of hiring 'journalists' whose sole purpose is to rile up the readers and spreading views that simulate brain damage (Hitchens, Littlejohn, Street-Porter) but then again it is a paper whose majority readership are women and I think they get more riled up by that kind of ****e than men.
Truth of the matter is that the DM has been a sensationalist newspaper since it was founded, indeed the purpose of it was to stir up emotion and to get you angry about issues when all other newspapers of the time were stuffy old papers of dry journalism. To the hard line authoritarian conservative economic liberal, the Daily Mail is a suitable newspaper. It appeals to a philosophical slant that is still very prevalent in society.
The DM gets a bad rap, but when you compare it to the socialist bog roll like The Guardian the differences are minimal. The Guardian hires idiot 'journos' like Charlie Brooker whose rants are not only asinine but often mis-informed and full of either blaring factual inaccuracies or just plain disregard for common sense and reality. Both papers are pushing a specific political agenda, the only difference seems to be that The Grauniad somehow retained its no-longer-applicable guise of being a factual newspaper.
Bottom line is that if you want the facts and less of the spin then you shouldn't be reading a newspaper that isn't pink. Read the FT and have done. Fact, informed analysis and news that is of interest to your average intellectually capable individual. On the other hand, if you enjoy poring over trashy column inches the DM/Guardian are perfect.
