I think the Daily Mail should be prosecuted for publishing knowingly incorrect information on the run up to the Brexit, then only publishing the negatives and potential effects of leaving.....after the Brexit. Many of their own readers were very unhappy with this. Michael Goves (pro out) wife also a columnist in the Daily Mail. Hmmm.

You may as well quote a scribble off the back of a fag packet / opinion of man in pub as are equally as accurate / factual as the nonsense that the mail publishes.

I never realised how bad it was until a couple of months ago I read almost a half page article on 'sheep go on rampage after eating cannabis' - i'd maybe expect this in the Sun.....For reference Cannabis is known to have a calming effect, so mentioning in the same sentence as 'rampage' couldn't be further from the truth. What happened? A couple of sheep escaped, may (they are not even sure of this key point), have eaten some cannabis. One made its way through an open door, walked into someones bedroom and promptly did a poo :D Is that worth half a page of news reporting!!!! Rest were wandering around aimlessly because some idiot left the gate open.


As for the mail & the Brexit - a double page spread with Joan Collins as why she wants out. She is rich, old and doesn't even live in the UK most of the time. Engineered to manipulate old(er) people - disgraceful. What's worse is many fell for it.

I used to be a regular reader of the Daily Mail, mainly to wind up Guardian reading colleagues, but I admit it's been lowering it's standards for years. It will be the first to moan if things don't turn out as they said.
