I wouldn't call it a soapbox. It's more like accurate stereotyping.

That too is ridiculous and unnecessary. Regardless of what he reads, Dave has a point, constant bashing of the Daily Mail gets very boring. We know they're sensationalist idiots now can we move on?

For the record, no - I'm not. Sensationalist trash that belongs alongside the Sun and the Star.

The train has not been implicated, and after many, many hours of being detained, and investigated it was free to go.
