Just picked up a worrying report - from America, 'natch'! - that the Barclay family are considering selling 'Her Majesty's Daily Telegraph'! Happily, The Spectator is not included in the mooted deal. Also, even more happily, none of the 'Usual Suspects' from the Left-wing, loony fringe have enough money to run their own failing newspapers let alone buy up another one so the chances of 'The Graun' buying it up are miniscule. Apparently, The Mail might be up for it and at least they are well to the Right under the splendid leadership of Lord Rothermere - so far! Perhaps, and this could be even worse news, some Russian crook oligarch with a Swiss bank full of stolen 'dosh' might fancy his chances! Life may not be the same!
Well, if you like it, why don't you have a whip-around and you and the cohorts can buy it. Then you can really tell it like it is.
