Monty voted Daily Mail, didn'tcha Monty, didn'tcha!

 

I didn't, my good man. I voted for The Sun.

 

Not that it would actually make a difference, it'd just leave a massive untapped demand for a daily dose of horrible, vindictive, dumbed-down, racist shit that someone would happily step in and fill. It'd be nice for all the former Sun readers in Liverpool too, they could go back to their preferred newspaper format but it wouldn't carry the stigma of the Sun! Winner!

 

It'd be nice if the Mail closed too. It's be nicer if the offices of the Mail and News International had some sort of collision causing everyone in there to die but then that's a rather abstract and impossible dream, isn't it?

Looks like their forum has picked up on what we are all doing...(Scroll down a bit)

 

'Which company would you close?' poll discussion - MoneySavingExpert.com Forums

 

Generally a lot of support too,

Which is always a good thing.

 

As for the Sun - we have seen unusual voting patterns and are aware of lobbying on some Liverpool based football websites. We will allow the vote to stand, but when we announce the result in next weeks email will note this has happened - which I think is the right solution.

Comments from the bloke running the poll (or admin at least).

 

Seems fair enough.

While I don't object to it - it is certainly a skew, as the voting is coming from a separate group of people and a disproportionate number as would normally be expected in a statistical random sample (not that the poll is one - but this certainly takes it further away)

 

As for Hillsborough as a North West of england man who spent three weeks in Walton hospital in May 1989 at the age of 17 in the same ward as many of the victims, my own memories are very vivid, real and personal - of the many players who came to visit and the tradgedy of what the disaster had done to many.
