  1. I bought The Telegraph today. I'm not turning into a 45 year old systems analyst who wears a deerstalker and calls his yacht 'Prudence', buying it got me a free big bottle of water, and since the paper was 80p and the water £1.49.....

    I mention this because I was intensely disappointed with it. I was expecting a bit of insight but got a cross between the Guardians lefty hand-wringing and a red top's nonsensical tub-thumping. How the hell it's Britains best selling broadsheet is beyond me.....

    The Telegraph have a new editor who doesn't really know what they are doing. They've always done the tub-thumping thing (they are the old Right's traditional bastion), but the hand-wringing has followed Call Me Dave's appeal to the old labour voters.

    The only papers I really find worth reading are The Times, the FT or the Metro. I particularly like the Metro's reviews - they pretty much accord with my own every time. EDITED TO ADD - The Herald is pretty good too, The Hootsmon is awful.
