So, anyone going to be buying the news of the world (for the last time) this Sunday?
NB; deliberate use of lower case.

I will stick with a news paper with news in it rather than a tits, gossip and celebrity driven pointless piece of tat
 
Never bought it, occasionally picked one up when it was left laying around at work - and flicked through it trying to find some real news (failed)
 
Perhaps the demise of the paper will encourage the others to do the job properly rather than cut corners
 
Not going to start now and certainly not going to loose any sleep about it's loss.

Come on guys - who really has time for reading a newspaper on Sundays??? Really, there is only one thing to do on a Sunday morning and we all know what that is ........

One of my work colleagues thought that all the proceeds would be going to charity.
Nether the less, you've got to feel sorry for staff at the bottom of the pile, when the culpable senior editorial staff get to sidestep into another Murdoch job.

The Sun on Sunday, apparently. NI bought  thesunonsunday.co.uk last week. It'll be same s***, different name.

Apparently the RNLI have said they'll refuse any money offered Clap
