The (British) Daily Mail is rather Right Wing

Certainly too nasty for Lego:

I guess it wasn’t a good fit.

Of course not. Lego is held together with circular plastic studs 4.8mm across. The Daily Mail is held together by popular fascism.

Maybe there’s an adapter kit.

May all Daily Mail readers tread barefoot on pieces of Lego at every opportunity.

What next: KerPlunk announces support for the Peshmerga?

Hard to see how the Daily Mail can survive the loss of Lego advertising.

The only more crushing blow would be if Patek Philippe abandoned the New York Times. :frowning:

Lego alone won’t make a significant dent, but they could be blazing a trail that other brands who like to be considered ethical may choose (or may feel obliged) to follow - Co-Op, M&S, John Lewis/Waitrose, Lush, Body Shop, etc.

The Mail, along with the Sun, have just been caught out in an even more blatant lie (to be fair, they may just have been sold a pup by a freelance photographer, but whoever it was knew what they would lap up without question) :

The most idiotic thing about all that is: so what if he even was ‘dancing a jig’ on his way to the service. It’s not an insult to do that.

The service of remembrance is explicitly supposed to be a sharp and solemn contrast to our everyday lives.

It’s also supposed to be about realising that our ordinary lives contain freedoms (such as the freedom to dance a jig in the street, if we want to) that were won at great cost and sacrifice.

I mean, I doubt he was dancing at all anyway, but manufactured unthinking patriotic bullshit outrage is orders of magnitude worse than would be dancing on your way to a memorial service.

Corbyn + dancing = does not compute.

Hear, hear!

They don’t even represent that which they pretend to represent. Their hypocrisy and self-serving agenda is utterly sickening.
