The Standard is still high for this paper.

Gives me my daily news as I need it 👍

Meh

Lots of grammatical errors. It seems every article is AI-generated and published without editing. There are several duplicate articles every day. When I first started using this app, I clicked articles with identical photos to see if one might be an update of a previous article, but found them both to be identical. The level of writing is around third form. Some of the ads are offensive. Recently, you were running ads about Obama and Clinton's children. I find that disgusting. Draw the line at politicians' children, regardless of age. They did not choose to be children of politicians, and must not be used in ads or gossip columns. That's bad form and should be beneath the dignity of a major British news organization. Decide to be better than a trashy gossip rag.
