I read all papers, it helps getting a balanced view.
If Labour voters only read Labour papers, and Tory voters only read Tory papers is it any wonder some people on here haven't got a clue what's going on in the real world.
I rarely read any papers and on the rare occasions I do it is usually the i because it tends not to tell me what to think and just dishes out the facts whilst leaving me to make up my own mind. Most of my information I get from a variety of non newsprint sources ranging across television, radio, and the internet. I do not limit myself to left wing sources, though I do tend to avoid the more notoriously unreliable right wing ones. The Mail Online, for example, is not one of my usual sources. There are some left wing sources of dubious reliability too which I tend not to look at very often and if I do because FB algorithms show it to me and it looks interesting enough to read I will try and verify it in other sources before I believe it. The Canary is an example of such a site online. I don't think the media papers are left or right, I think the papers can put a spin on a story that might swing a bit to the left or right, depending.
I've noticed the Mirror who we know is a leftie paper have put some negative articles about Labour, the Mirror would not normally print negative press about Labour they would just fail to mention it.
I think the papers or online news are starting to drift away from being a leftie or right, some of the worst press Johnson and Partygate received was at the hands of the Daily Mail, so you could hardly keep accusing them of being right wing, or only those who read them are right wing.

Some people appear to ignore the fact when Labour were voted out of Office the Treasury Coffers were empty that is why the Tories had no other choice but to cut Public Spending to the bone the years of Austerity to try and try to fill the coffers again, its a good job they did or we would have to borrow even more money to deal with the worldwide Pandemic Not to mention Brown selling off our gold on the cheap.
They had to get shut of him before he got rid of the silver and anything else that wasn't nailed down.
I wonder how much they got for their londonistan HQ the last I heard it was £6million.? Their new HQ is a garden shed in stammers back yard now LOL how the mighty have fallen......They can't even look after their own assets let alone those of the UK.
Labour sells HQ in bid to avoid financial crisis

Yep. We get the leaders we deserve. And then suffer the consequences. For some reason the people of the UK prefer to be entertained rather than be able to rely on good sense and dignified balanced governance. And then expect to be taken seriously by the rest of the world. There is nothing dignified about getting on your knees for a convicted felon..
And Ginge ain't even pulling her weight given there's only two c*nts visible in that picture.

If you don't think the Mail is a right wing mag you are surely kidding yourself. The fact that it sometimes criticises Tory misdoings does not change that reality. It just knows what sells papers and people want to read about such things. Same reason why a left leaning rag like the Mirror will print stories about Labour misdoings, not that Labour is particularly left wing anymore.
