There were some comments on the BBC that the Scottish Edition of The Sun has taken a slightly different stance on this. This isn't perhaps surprising: back in 1992 (when it was "The Sun wot won it"), the Sun in Scotland was officially claiming to support the SNP, not the Tories.

My question is:are there any FMs in Scotland who've seen the Scottish edition (the physical paper - not the website) and can confirm/deny any difference in the paper's stance?

I bet Gordon Browns mopping his brow and saying "thank god for that*

Only a month ago, James Murdoch launched a massive attack on the BBC and Ofcom.

David Cameron wants to freeze the licence fee and slim down Ofcom.
Coincidence?

Probabaly not

The arse shines out of the Sun.

It's interesting to see the influence that a newspaper can have though...

For example, this will provide an interesting dilemma for any Liverpool supporting tories out there after The Sun's previous lies about Liverpool fans led to a boycott...

I am sure both of them will carry on the boycott.

Sadly in Wales we're lumped in with whatever the English Sun wants, because we have no separate edition.
I don't think you'll find too many here who'd agree with Rupert Murdoch, however. Why should we care what some Aussie-American fatcat thinks?

Just when I think you can't GET any wittier!   

Hahaha Prescott twittered (tweeted?) about it last night, he said good I don't want Murdoch supporting us anyway (or words to that effect)

I don't read Prescott's twitter btw A friend linked to the Go Fourth site on fb.

Rupert Murdoch and Tony Blair were the real alliance so this comes as no surprise.

It was always a fake romance, The Labour Party & The Sun newspaper,

The Sun and most of Murdoch's titles world wide hate being seen to back
the loosing party, They were never going to back Brown, Unless he had a
10 point lead in the polls that is.

Quick Gordon, get a boob implant...they'll soon change their mind


Actually I think it's to Britain's shame that this rag is the best selling daily paper.........we look like a nation of fuckwits 

I just read this elsewhere...sadly I'm not responsible for this lovely work.

"I'm so bored of the sun telling us that it was them what won it, the clueless bandwagon jumping shitbags."

You can say that again, Leccy!

Gah, I keep getting posting error messages today.

Cilla and Stan Boardman

 well put

Oh I say!

I only found out today they were'nt still a Tory propaganda rag..Though I've boycotted it since Hillsborough....

I suppose that some might argue that as long as Blair/Brown were carrying out Tory policies and supporting an unregulated market then they would have the support of the foreign press. However now that Brown is being a bit more interventionist and taking the party to where it belongs (i.e out of power before Danjay can do that one) the Sun isn't interested. I might even rejoin now.
