Who looks at the 'boosting minimum wage' headline negatively?

I guess its tailored to their old readership.

They were always going to leave this to the last minute, it was their ace up their sleeve. No matter how bad the Tory campaign is, we can always bring up Jeremy's past and use it as a reminder, especially  after two recent attacks. I just cannot see a good result for Labour, we're carrying too much baggage, and sadly people who can't make their minds up, usually settle for whoever is in power at the time.

I think it's too late to make much difference. The vast majority of people have made up their minds at this point, and I'd wager that those who are undecided are unlikely to be reading the Mail.

I think one of the reasons they are turning up the heat is that they are concerned about Tory voter complacency. After all they did promise a landslide.

A lot of the political blog etc now get more views than the national papers.

Like Another Angry Voice  and The Canary.

A interesting read.

 DIY political websites: new force shaping the general election debate

A week before polling day, highly partisan blog articles are being shared more than ‘MSM’ news, a Guardian analysis has found


With seven days until Britain goes to the polls, a new force is shaping the general election debate.

Highly partisan, semi-professional political blogs are being shared more widely online than the views of mainstream newspaper commentators.

Websites run by a publicity-shy English tutor in Yorkshire, an undergraduate student in Nottingham and a former management consultant in Bristol are publishing some of the most shared articles about the UK general election, ranking alongside and often above the BBC, the Guardian and the Independent.

Alternative news sites are run from laptops and bedrooms miles from the much-derided “Westminster bubble” and have emerged as one of the most potent forces in election news sharing, according to research conducted for the Guardian by the web analytics company Kaleida.

Two of the three most shared articles since Theresa May called the election on 18 April remain those written by Thomas Clark, who publishes left-leaning articles from his Yorkshire home under the moniker Another Angry Voice.

Nothing from the BBC, the Guardian or the Daily Mail comes close to his greatest hit of the campaign so far, subheadlined in typical conversational style: “If you insist on blibber-blabbering about how Jeremy Corbyn is so ‘unelectable’, could you at least tell us how many of his policies you disagree with and why.”

It has been shared more than 102,000 times on social media so far, according to Kaleida. The most shared pieces by the BBC and the Guardian trailed not just this, but two of Clark’s other posts on “why you need to speak to someone who works in the NHS” and “30 things you should know about the Tory record”.

The Canary, a pro-Corbyn Bristol-based site, claimed it doubled the number of visitors to its site to six million last month.

Evolve Politics, which is run by just two people in Nottingham and Peterborough, saw its story that the rapper Akala “just smashed the entire anti-Corbyn argument in seconds” shared 55,000 times on Facebook.

It was read at least 200,000 times. Whether such sites have the power to change voters’ intentions or function largely as echo chambers is becoming an urgent question for politicians.

The websites explicitly offer a counter-narrative to what they deride as the “MSM” or mainstream media.

The ninth most shared election article came from the Canary on Tuesday when it fulminated at the lack of praise in newspapers for Corbyn’s performance in an interview with Jeremy Paxman.

The headline ran: “What’s happening across the front pages of the UK press today is nothing short of a whitewash.”

The phenomenon is not unique to the left. Westmonster, a pro-Brexit “anti-establishment news” site set up only a few months ago by the insurance billionaire and former Ukip backer Arron Banks, has pushed its way into the top 40 most shared election stories.

Its story last week “Farron to open door to 50,000 Syrians” garnered 11,000 shares, according to Kaleida.

Breitbart London is the UK branch of the “alt-right” website in Washington owned by Donald Trump’s chief strategist, Steve Bannon, and cited as a huge influence in Trump’s win. It publishes a large volume of news about immigration issues in Europe and radical Islam.

But it had its biggest UK hit last week with: “Morrissey rips British politicians after Manchester attack: ‘petrified’ to admit Islamic extremism behind terror.” It was shared 25,000 times.

The role of viral blogs comes under the microscope after abuse was levelled by some pro-Corbyn Twitter users at the BBC Woman’s Hour presenter Emma Barnett, following her tough interview with Corbyn in which he forget the cost of a key Labour childcare pledge.

Barnett was labelled a “Zionist” and a “pig”, but these blogs did not join in. The Canary implored in one piece: “We should also be fair to host Barnett, because social media has been tearing strips off her.”

The publishers of the partisan sites strongly deny they are echo chambers but they do believe their job is to rally support for their causes.

Another Angry Voice deliberately framed its viral hit, which set out 20 Labour policies, as a campaigning tool.

Clark urged readers: “If every Labour party supporter uses this as a reply every single time they see the ‘unelectable’ trope being wheeled out, maybe it might eradicate this.”

Clark did not respond to requests for comment, but did say recently that his audience knew they were being misled by other media and “really like having a guy out there who can cut through the propaganda and put the counter-arguments into articles and infographics they can share”.

Matthew Turner, 21, a third-year politics undergraduate at Nottingham University, has grasped that the shareability of the alt-media is what gives it political potential. In between studying for his finals, he helps run Evolve Politics.

“When something goes as viral as our Akala story, it is never just preaching to the choir,” he told the Guardian.

One of his site’s pre-election hits was “Shameless Tory student films himself burning Ł20 note in front of freezing homeless person.” It received half a million views and sparked anger that “united the left and centre”.

Evolve set up a charity appeal for a shelter in Cambridge, where the incident happened, and it raised almost Ł5,000.

“This kind of dynamic activism is new to the media,” Turner said. “Stories that go viral are stories that you can rally around. I think the vast majority of readers like us because we light a fire in their belly.

“Readers of the mainstream media tend to not get that nowadays. We are the ones offering the fight.”

Evolve pays fees of as little as Ł5 for a 1,000-word piece, but offers 50% of advertising revenue received from Google, which can vary from a few pence if the story only gets a few clicks to Ł200 if it generates half a million.

Critics say this creates a strong incentive to exaggerate or even falsify stories, but Turner insisted the site’s editors were careful to fact-check contributions.

Raheem Kassam, a former aide to Nigel Frottage who is now editor-in-chief of Breitbart London, believes the new sites have finally broken a media oligarchy.

“People see a massive disconnect between what is going on in their streets and town centres and what is on the BBC nightly news,” he said.

Responding to the suggestion that alt-news sites are blurring fact and opinion, he said: “I do not mix opinion and news within stories. When I look at sites like the Canary and Westmonster, I almost feel like we are the grownups in the room now. They are mixing editorial in with news.”

With Brietbart, the editorial stance is as much apparent in the story selection and headlines.

Take the following stories from one week last month: “Germany: Iraqi asylum-seeker convicted of raping Chinese students”; “Pakistani migrant faces terror charges in Germany”; and “Asylum seeker brutally tortures fellow migrant, gouges eyes over 50 euro debt”.

Kassam edits the site from the US and posts international stories with themes that resonate with Trump’s new nationalism.

“We are looking at global events and trying to protect the idea of nationhood,” he said.

“We are bringing in examples of where others are doing things incorrectly. We are showing policies on migration, multiculturalism and welfare and where is good and bad.”

Kerry-Anne Mendoza, the editor of the Canary, which has grown to a team of 20 freelance writers and editors, denies Kassam’s claim it mixes fact and opinion, saying: “We write in a human voice. We are not attempting to be a paper of record.”

Mendoza, 35, a former management consultant, joined the Occupy movement in 2011. She then went to report from Gaza during the conflict with Israel in 2014 before starting the Canary 10 days before Jeremy Corbyn was elected Labour leader in 2015.

“We wear our biases openly – social and environmental justice, racial equality and the right of men and women to live equally,” she said.

“We have a crisis in our media. It is fundamentally too narrow in terms of ownership and the backgrounds of the people producing the news. Readers are presented with an astonishingly similar narrative.”

The viral spread of posts by the new range of alt-news sites during the current election campaign suggests the appetite for something different is finally being sated.

Like Another Angry Voice  and The Canary.

'During July 2016, The Canary achieved over 7.5 million page views, ranking 97th in readership among UK media organisations, slightly higher than The Spectator and The Economist. The site's publishers, Canary Media, rose 47 spots from 126th in June to 79th in July among the top UK publishers.[41] The majority of its site traffic comes from Facebook.[4]' (from Wikipedia)

'Globally, MailOnline is the most visited English-language newspaper website;[3] ComScore gave the site 61.6 million unique desktop computer visitors for January 2014, ahead of The New York Times website, which received 41.97 million visitors in the same month.[12] According to ComScore, MailOnline recorded 100.5 million visitors across desktop computers, smartphones and tablets in that month.[13] In July 2014 it recorded 134 million users.[14]' (from Wikipedia)*

Sorry, I don't know who fed you that bollocks. Daily Mail print readership is around 4 million daily, which beats the Canary's monthly total in just 2 days.

You're dreaming. More Fake News.

*It does say about 70% of Mail Online views are from abroad, mainly USA and Australia. However, the 30% that remains UK based viewings still far exceeds the reach of the Canary.

I would guess that:
99% of Mail voters are Tory or UKIP.
99% of Canary /AAV readers are Labour or Green.

People reading those sources have already made up their minds and are looking for confirmation bias. The difference is that people who don't read the Mail are still exposed to the front page of it on a daily basis. Some of that seeps through.

An awful lot of Mail readers would not self-identify themselves with a political party. The Mail could be a lifestyle rather than a political choice. The Canary is almost exclusively hard core politicos. Although it will be read by more than 1% who fundamentally disagree with everything that they write.

The number of shares is less than the number of members in the Labour Party. There is the whiff of preaching to the converted.  The Canary is catering to a niche that is already involved in the Labour Party.  Labour will not smash the MSM. They can only win by using the MSM to spread their message.

But the leering and/or sneering at overweight celebs pulls in the punters.

They aint watching the News at Ten, Benefits street or Jeremy 'groomer' Kyle anymore and they've stopped buying Newspapers.
They still watched that X factor / fame or shame crap last saturday though.
She voted Tory and he voted Libs last time and both voted Brexit. In one week they've flipped to Labour.   

How is that possible in this day and age? Not saying you're telling porkies, I just can't get my head around how two people in their late 30s have never been online. Are they refugees from North Korea or something?

So Labour have sown up the never been online in their 30s sector. There must be at least half a dozen people that fit that description.

I did put a NHS youtube vid on for them, to correct a few myths about the NHS and The Tories and I bookmarked AAV and left them to it. So yeah I suppose I am  :)

Sorry I missed this earlier but no it's not N Korea its Tory Britain in 2017 and the simplest answer is untill recently they were very much "temporarily embarrassed millionaires" and possibly too proud to ask for help...But we live in a country where Nurses Firemen and other hardworking people feel the need to visit foodbanks... and i can't get my head around that either.     

btw
I know quite a few people with either no Internet access or 500mb per month phone contracts so theres no youtube, i player, netflix etc for them, just emails.

The dog-whistling of their front page today is disgraceful. Painting the Grefnell victims as an angry mob of immigrants 'storming' the town hall and Number 10, while poor Theresa has to be protected by police.
The very carefully chosen photo is like something from the Arab spring demonstrations, not to mention the headline. The signal is clear, that the UK's immigrant population is like a ticking timebomb ready to go off and overrun the country in violent upheaval.

There's no depths these c*nts will sink too, no opportunity missed to demonize or instill unease and fear in people.

The way the twitter comments brand the march as momentum activists sickens me.  Liverpool should treat this piece of shit newspaper the exact same way as the rag.  Makes my blood boil when I see scousers reading it.

I'm surprised that people don't legally challenge them more.

Good to see that Wikipedia doesn't accept anything from them any more.

A few years back, a stewardess at Manchester Airport attempted to give me a free copy of the Daily Fail. I informed her that as I wasn't a Nazi, I wasn't interested in her lying rag. The funniest thing about that was the glares I got from angry older bellends behind me, who all eagerly accepted their Free Papers.

Daily mail is a disposable paper. The only things it doesn't think cause cancer is racism

I remember when they ran an article labelling scientists as nazis. The reason? Well scientists had ran multiple studies and done some analysis and discovered that alcohol was more addictive than marijuana. Not only that, but alcohol was also linked to more crimes, more social/domestic abuse and more ill health than marijuana.

The original review article was very well referenced and was backed by many good scientists, but clearly the Daily Mail was pandering to it's all day wetherspoons drinkers and wanted to dispel the facts. They suggested hat scientists only discover things in the lab and test random things with no benefit to society, hence the link to the nazi experiments.

They suggested that scientists hold no moral compass, that they do so little to benefit society and had their studies been performed on real people (they had) rather than in white shiny labs the results would have been different.

Sadly two of our countries most popular papers and hate filled rags written with the average reading age of about 9.

It's also a dying paper. It's demographic is the over 50 and given these people likely take the daily mails health advice to heart they won't live too long. Hence why the mail continues to look for shock in the hope people will read about it.
