Barryd999 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I Saw this posted on another forum this morning "Will we see a pro remain Daily Mail come the Autumn? Many would say that fleet street was more instrumental than Westminister in winning the referendum. And that one man above all, Paul Dacre (editor of the Mail) was more instrumental than anyone else. Well big changes are afoot. Dacre defied the owner of the Mail (Rothermere a reemainer) but is now retiring. Geordie Greig who is editor of the Mail on Sunday is a committed remainer and the Mail on Sunday is to today a remainer paper. It looks like that Greig will succeed Dacre. Gone will be the days of "enemies of the people" headlines with respect to the courts and house of peers! With the Mail at best neutral or pro remain it makes you wonder how long brexit will last then, fatally wounded as it is now. It will be November before Dacre actually steps down so maybe a long and lingering death but death it is for brexit in the eyes of public opinion before the turn of the year." What will you Beano readers do then? There is always the Brexpress of course. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John52 Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 Barryd999 - 2018-06-08 9:52 AM Rothermere a reemainer Presumably because he is not domiciled in one of Her Majesty's Tax havens under threat from an EU wide tax treaty, and has not bet against the UK economy like the Hedge Fund managers backing Brexit.

Barryd999 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Hasnt the Brexpress been taken over by pro remain Mirror Group as well recently? Not that its made any difference. Their comments pages make Chatterbox look like a WI Sewing circle. Always good for a laugh and a bit of trolling. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that its made any difference. Their comments pages make Chatterbox look like a WI Sewing circle. Always good for a laugh and a bit of trolling. :D I think it was a pragmatic business decision to leave the editorial policy unchanged. If they published anything intelligent it would alienate its current readership, and possibly draw customers away from the Daily Mirror.? Sp presumably they will continue with headlines of grossly exaggerated weather forecasts etc to drive sales? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
