Just out of curiosity, where would you place them currently?

Left of center?

Their news coverage is good (SportsDirect being a case in point). Its the opinion pages which makes me wonder.

Yeah I would agree that they're left of centre. But I would say that they have moved more to the right in the last few years.

I guess that probably says something about our politics too :-)

Interesting that you believe that they've moved right. I sorta think they've (particularly the opinion pages) moved left, especially with regards to social issues.

> I guess that probably says something about our politics too

I was gonna agree with you and then I thought that in fact, it should be possible to place someone's politics on a scale that is independent of the observer. Keynesian is to the left of supply-side economics for instance. Social issues are on their own scale.
