I disagree with the framing in the article, but I don't think it's unlikely that the documents were hacked by Russians. Doesn't mean they're fake or anything. I think the accusations of parts being edited are interesting because one of the key Labour attacks is "the US demanded no environmental protections, why did the UK not demand no NHS offers?" and it would be devastating if the Tories can prove it was removed... luckily they're such shameless liars in this campaign that Labour will just say "you've added that in after the fact just like how you edited the Yellowhammer documents"

"When I was a girl, around 12 or 13, I had a fantasy that I'd grow up to marry Captain Scarlet, but he'd be busy fighting the Mysterons so I'd cuckold him with the sexiest people I could think of - Nigel Mansell, Pat Sharp and Mr. Blobby."

Lol remember that tanker bound for Iran(possibly Syria now that I think about it) that US military intelligence gave information directly to the Royal Navy about and they held them prisoner for a few weeks without government prior approval while the US told us to defend our own poo poo in the Gulf.

Love our independent country.

The weird thing is, definitely about 20-40 years or so ago, even though the Sun has always been a tory rag (except I think it briefly supported Blair without googling to check), Sun readers thought it was a Labour paper (including one of my nans who always voted tory). I wouldn't be surprised if that's still true.

Found this from 2017:



Suggests people consider it the fourth-leftiest paper, with double the leftiness of the other nominally right-wing rags. Suppose it makes sense given it's a working class red top, and the majority of its readers will be skipping the politics bits.

Oh my loving god, are you really defending this article? I didn't have an opinion on you before, except that I thought your initial investigative journalism was impressive and valuable, but it's clear that you are just an absolute hack. Trying to pretend that this contentless smear has any value is pathetic, and so is the tantrum that you've thrown in this thread. Maybe you were once a credible journalist, but all I've seen today is a Pissflaps with pretensions. Log off, get some sleep and then look in a loving mirror, for gently caress's sake.

As usual, I agree with Braggart

I remember in the run up to the 2010 election that The Sun, having positioned itself previously as Labour supporting, backed the Tories and it was seen as news that they had flipped like this.
