UK TREND : Attacks on The Daily Mail on Twitter
The Daily Mail is a London-based middle-market daily tabloid newspaper and news website.
Following their most recent front-page article about the tax burden, The Daily Mail has come under fire from the public, with the hashtag #DailyMail trending on Twitter.
People were infuriated by the article’s title and content, especially in light of the fact that Lord Rother mere, its billionaire owner, doesn’t even pay taxes.
The Daily Mail infuriates Brits on social media
Many people criticised The Daily Mail’s front-page article, and much of their disdain stemmed from the fact that it used a Tufton Street organisation as the source of the study, thus , giving inaccurate information.
Today, the Daily Mail front page condemns what it calls 'Something For Nothing Britain'.
It says that people are getting too much in benefits and that the top 10% are paying too much tax.
The servile hacks who churn out this kind of propaganda have no shame.

The article, which demonised those who are legally entitled to benefits and complained about tax contributions while their own owner, Lord Rother mere, “doesn’t even pay any tax,” outraged the public.
Seeing the Daily Mail bang on about the tax burden always reminds me that Lord Rothermere doesn't even pay any tax

Twitter users highlighted that “ The daily Mail is owned by a company registered in Bermuda to avoid paying tax”. In this article the Daily Mail were claiming that “high earners pay more tax which is not fair. However, this is not even the case for the billionaire tax dodging boss who doesn’t even pay a penny in tax due to having non-Dom status”.
High earners pay more tax you say.
That's not the case for your billionaire tax-dodging boss Lord Rothermere who doesn't pay a penny in tax thanks to having non-dom status.
The Daily Mail is owned by a company registered in Bermuda to avoid paying tax in the UK.
Any comment ?

Individuals thought rather than the newspaper focusing on demonising their poor readers , they “ should ask their owner why he doesn’t pay taxes”.
Suspect many Daily Mail readers are in this category. Would certainly apply to most pensioner households but this isn’t a problem.
Maybe the Mail should ask it’s owner why he doesn’t pay taxes.— Ros Hutchinson (@ros_hutchinson) January 23, 2023
Twitter user Russ Jones tweeted his displeasure with The Daily Mail for yet again “ lacking context in their pieces, which only leaves The Daily Mail readers ignorant, misled, and angry at the wrong thing”.
"Top 10% of earners pay half of tax" shrieks the Daily Mail.
But the richest 1% get TWO THIRDS of new wealth. So the top 10% still aren't paying anything like their fair share of tax.
Lack of context once again leaves Mail readers ignorant, misled, and angry at the wrong thing. pic.twitter.com/g0wGoUfBPb

It was also highlighted that following “ the weekend that Zahawis illegal tax affairs were revealed the Daily Mail comes out attacking poor people, somehow placing the blame on them”.
After the weekend that Zahawi's illegal tax affairs were revealed the Daily Mail comes out swinging against….poor people…yes, it's poor people's fault again. Why won't the poor just die & leave rich people to eat diamonds in peace? pic.twitter.com/XnIRvYkfyE

How Daily Mail readers could fall for its diversion and demonization was being questioned. Instead of the wealthy evading taxes, it blames the millions of dollars that are not being paid in tax on hardworking people. For instance, the Daily Mail’s owner, a non-Dom, who does not pay any taxes to the UK
How quickly Daily Mail readers fall for it's distraction & demonising.
Not moaning about the billions not being paid in tax by the rich but so willing to point fingers & condemn hard working people.
Btw, the Mail's owner is non dom paying no UK tax & Mail supported the Nazis pic.twitter.com/liqyNJeOfY— aching_bones (@jaded_old_guy) January 23, 2023
The Daily Mail were referred to as “ the ultimate tax dodgers”.
Surprised to see the ultimate tax dodgers – The Daily Mail – moaning about the tax contributions of others.

People were confused as to why anyone would buy or read such a paper as the Daily Mail.” Absolute trash paper”.
Why do people buy the Daily Mail and The Sun? Absolute trash papers.
