Whichever one of them said no deal is worse for the UK than it is for Britain was telling fibs. Cut that one out for sure.

In no specific order.

The independent

The times

The guardian

NY Times

BBC

Channel 4

Irish times

Occasionally others. I hate giving advertising revenue to publications that promote hate. But occasionally look at the Express and Mail websites, purely from a know-your-enemy perspective.

Specialist investment publications?! Ahhhh Pat, I knew it was you. Hopefully I don’t get a timeout from the forums for welcoming you back as I did last time. Why did you change your location?

I stumbled across this as I woke up. A surprisingly concise list of what could be voted on today.

Guardian, Indie, Beeb, Sky, some Times/ Telegraph would be the main

NewsNow - picksup many feeds, generally taken with a large dos of salt and validated elsewhere.

The key thing is to use multiple varied sources and check again

It’s almost impossible to work out what is satire and what is reality these days.

Al Jazeera does something interesting stuff.

About things in the rest of the world.

The Saudis hate it.

Which is good enough for me.

Let’s face it the Saudis hate anything that lets people know what’s really going on in the world and not the spoon fed lies they preach

The news I always look forward to is Sky News on Sunday evening ,,, for one particular recurring item ,,, when May had a bad week ( and there are a few of them ) Sky News like to show Mrs . May going into a Church . I think this must be to try to show that May , as leader of the Conservative Party is a nice person and not someone who would put British citizens in detention centres like happened under the avoidable Windrush scandal , or make vindictive cuts to disabled people , I would love to hear the opinions of the vicar in the Church but the cameras never follow her in

Hereford

The Independent

The BBC

Although I don't know why, I disagree with their perspective on just about everything.

Occasionally the Guardian, but since it's no longer a co-op, it's just as right wing as the other two.
