I did find the breakdown of which newspapers are read by people of different political striupes interesting:

The newspaper rankings - particularly surprising, since The Daily Mail is normally thought of as having the the most right-wing readership of the major dailies. Also the Sun and Express readership appear from this to be relatively further left than one would expect. Closest to you (but not very close) appears to be The Daily Star - a paper which I must confess I've never looked at in my life!
