Daily Mirror but I rarely buy newspapers. I read lots of Daily Mail articles online but I'd never buy their newspaper, their journalists are appalling and completely biased.

The Guardian seem to have the most interesting articles, and I'd identify with their political stance the most... but the readers can be extremely irritating and self-righteous. I like Metro because it's free and an easy read, and also like The Times since it's edited really well and a nice compromise.

Can't stand the Independent, their writers seem to be very archaic and joyless.

The Guardian or i for me. The former because its articles are the most thought-provoking and interesting, and the latter because it's the most concise, easy to read. Anything but the Daily Mail or Express though. And The Sun. I know that's so cliche but, well...they are God awful abominations and a disgusting waste of the paper they're printed on.

And the Daily Mirror to me is just like a piss poor imitation of The Sun (even if its political allegiances differ quite a lot).

The Metro.

It's the only thing I miss about having to take a bus.

The Times. The Sunday Times ticks me off though, you need a trolley to get it home what with all the mags and supplements.

A nice big virtual slap from me for whoever votes the Sun.

Don't buy newspapers myself.
