    Goodbye Sun and hello Daily Mail

    Soccer? Really?

    As for the content of the story - tragic. It's probably a good thing ultimately - when I get linked to their stories, I now won't waste any time at all reading them.

    I don't think there will be many ripples on the internet from this move.

    Please can they do the same to the Sieg Heil?

    Is it really a tragedy that Cameron's filter is likely to block The Sun?

    Well as I never ever look at the paper or the website it won't be much of a loss. Anyway why would anyone pay to get access to such rubbish.

    I wish the Daily Mail would put up a paywall, so that USA sites wouldn't link to its nonsense all the time and make us all look like psychopaths.

    Ironically enough, I think it is the Sun readers who hold the most credit cards! The only debate will be which of the over-over-drafts they will use.
