You must be joking. Every tabloid was for Leave.
- olavk 8y agoYou are downvoted, but as somebody outside of the UK I have no idea if you are correct or not.
- oligopoly 8y agoNot factual hence the downvotes.
- pjc50 8y agoHe's correct, see my list upthread.
- gadders 8y agoHe's incorrect. The Daily Mirror was pro-remain and is a tabloid. And to add to your list above, the Economist (not strictly a newspaper but influential) and the FT were pro-remain, as was the BBC.
- GW150914 8y agoSurely you’re seriously claiming that the FT or BBC are tabloids? Every tabloid was for Leave. That’s the gp comment after all.

By circulation, 50% of papers backed leave, 33% backed remain. In terms of tabloids it was and is even more skewed.
