Grumpmeister: He reads the Daily Mail so you don't have to    :thumbsup:

I get a daily online news digest from The Mail, Express, Times, Guardian, New York Times, FT, Independent, Metro, Reuters, BBC, Fox, Sky and a couple of others.

I work on the basis that if a group of them have covered the same story then the truth is somewhere in between the articles.

Generally for stories of utter stupidity it's easier to take them from the Mail or the Metro.
