I agree with Nick – Clegg slams Britain-hating Daily Mail

I rarely agree with Nick – but I couldn’t have put it better than this myself. Here’s what the Lib Dem leader had to say about the Mail on his LBC show today (h/t New Statesman):

“My honest reaction was that when I heard the Daily Mail accusing someone of saying that they did not like Britain, I’m not a regular reader of this newspaper but every time I do open it, it just seems to be overflowing with bile about modern Britain. They don’t like working mothers, they don’t like the BBC, they don’t like members of the royal family, they don’t like teachers, they don’t like the English football team. The list goes on. So talk about kettles and pots … It seems to me that if anyone excels in denigrating and often vilifying a lot about modern Britain, it’s the Daily Mail.”

I agree with Nick…
