Perhaps, but isn't the Telegraph supposed to be the BEST conservative paper in Britain?

The Sun is a 'tits and ass' tabloid, that sells a conservative agenda. It's like comparing the Weekly World News to the Washington Post.

Pukka..do you have ANY concept of newspaper sales?

Right, so you confirmed by point. While the Sun may well be more conservative than the Telegraph, the fact that this hit piece on our troops was printed in the far more reputable Telegraph makes it that much more objectionable, since it was printed in a respected conservative paper, one that might be expected to reflect mainstream conservative thought in Britain.

It would be as if the Wall Street Journal ran an editorial slamming the performance to the British troops, which would be far more objectionable to the British than a similar article in the Washington Times.

Is your hair still red?
