...on my fanfic.

If I were NOT supporting the Tories, what newspaper would I be reading?

Broadsheet - The Guardian (although it's hardly pro-Blair either), The Independent (which could be anything, nobody reads it) and (at present) The Times, although that's subject to Murdoch whim.

Tabloid - The Mirror (pro-Labour but ambivalent about current government) and at the moment (again subject to Murdoch whim) The Sun (pro-Blair but anti-Labour).

You could also pick The Morning Star (communist) and Socıalıst Worker (guess), but that's probably taking things a bit too far.

That's it for the national newspapers; Lord alone knows what the regional press thinks - London Evening Standard rabidly right-wing though
