notoriously mild-mannered editor of the daily mail, paul dacre, made his move to trigger article 50 today, arguing that 49 articles about brexit in his paper each day just wasn<u+2019>t enough to get his message across. 




<u+2018>we<u+2019>ve tried everything. <u+2018>take a bow britain<u+2019>, <u+2018>enemies of the people<u+2019>, <u+2018>you<u+2019>re all a bunch of european-loving t****<u+2019>, noted dacre placidly. <u+2018>however, some people remain unconvinced by the softly-softly, measured, evidence based headline-making that is our hallmark. it<u+2019>s time for more drastic measures.<u+2019> 




all features in the paper will now be expected to have a brexit angle, with the exception of the daily filler piece on the dangers of statins, for which copy is already in the can for at least the next five years. 




early sightings of tomorrow<u+2019>s paper reveal a front-pager on the big overnight news from the us, revealing <u+2018>meghan markle looking supreme, that<u+2019>s the judgement of everyone, as she looks for a quick brexit back to stateside<u+2019>. crossword answers must now be drawn from a series of approved words, which include brexit, may, article 50, invoke, the, people, have, spoken, timetable, for, exit, now, now and now! the regular free garden seeds promotion will feature a new <u+2018>sovereign brtain<u+2019> bloom which the paper hopes will blossom <u+2018>sometime in 2017<u+2032>, but which the planting notes caution will need much attention and care from may. 




some at the paper are said to be uncomfortable with dacre<u+2019>s new editorial policy, but they know that arguing with him is ultimately a futile exercise. <u+2018>colleagues say that likes to impose his will on the paper<u+2019>, said one insider. <u+2018>at least that<u+2019>s what i think they meant when they talked about that big cock on the mail.<u+2019>   8th, 2016 by chrisf   chrisf   uk news 0
