    I’ll check it out. I would really like to read a proper leftwing news outlet, doesn’t even have to be a paper in origin as I lean socialist and I am queer. Obviously the UK right wing papers are notoriously bad for sensationalism, the BBC has got worse since the Tory’s have taken control of it and it follows the government line plus it’s shit when it comes to trans issues and things like migration. The guardian isn’t so bad in everything but trans issues and then you’ve got columnists who are of the LGBT community like Arwha Mad something and she’s written negative articles about trans people and the readers of the guardian are also anti trans generally. The Times is linked to Murdoch so I won’t read it and the financial times I don’t mind but I’ve only read a handful of articles on it ever so I don’t know their stance on issues/causes that are important to me.

    I don’t mind reading people with differing opinions but I take umbrage with the outlet itself going out of its way to portray things in an over the top negative way and I have an issue with sensitive topics not being written about in a respectful way.
