Political Positions Of Newspapers



Socialist/left wing 
Rights for workers and minorities are key. Believe the rich benefit for exploiting the poor and that the system should end revolution. 

Liberal/left of Center 
Pretty middle of the road. Tend to offer the most unbiased, objective perspective. Believe it is important to represent people from all minority groups and countries. 

Conservative/ Right of Center 
Uphold traditional values about Britishness, class, gender etc.: anti- Labour and Lib Dems. Don't like Britain being part of the EU. Wary of immigration. Pro-Capitalist. 

Nationalist/Right-Wing
Incredibly patriotic. Dislikes change - highly supportive of traditional values: anti abortion, anti - same sex marriages, heavily opposed to immigration. Believe Britain should be Britain for (White) British people.
