Any suitable responses and/or explanations to the newsagent who is used to my libtard paper purchases. |  |

Take him The Observer telling him to like it or get his own next time.
It's for his own good. |  |

i'm interested in new ideas and challenging my opinions?
nah, no one's going to believe that |  |

Get your own paper and stop relying on your neighbour. | |

Tell him it was sold out (to a bunch of psychopathic fascist owners) and fetch him The Observer instead. |  | | |

I'd have a little look through before you give it to him. Bar some obvious silly Ness, the rest is surprisingly decent. |  |

If he is a Suffolk resident, tell him that he can use his library card to register with PressReader and he can read a digital copy for free, thus sparing you the embarrasement of having to go and buy it.
Otherwise I suggest you also buy a porno mag and slip the Torygraph inside it to avoid any shame if you envounter anyone you know on the way back with it. |  |

I was just looking through The Barclay Brothers Wikipedia to confirm their ownership of Sark (so I could advise you to make a Sarky comment...) when I found out that they do not, they own Brecqhou an even smaller island nearby. So I kept digging and found out that they once owned Ellerman Lines as well as Telegraph Newspapers. But they sold off the brewing interests of Ellerman, which would have included Tolly Cobbold. I think it was around this time that, as well as England taking Bobby Robson away from us, the support of the Cobbolds for the club started to wane.
So I am suggesting that you link the fall in our fortunes, specifically yesterday's defeat, to the not quite so benevolent ownership in the decades following Tolly's loss of market and that this was caused by the Telegraph's owners. I'm sure that is a winning knock down argument, isn't it? |  |

Maybe rather than a jazz mag, I could pick up a copy of the latest Naaridge rag for the same purpose. | |

Fold it inside a copy of the Sunday sport, like you usually do with your paper. |  | | |

I tend to read the Sunday sections through the week. Last week I had two travel sections to read but couldn't bring myself to read 'em. Too depressing reading about places we won't be able to visit any time soon.
Anyhow - elderly neighbour was so impressed with my paper buying / delivery service I got a 10p tip :-) | |

You could just get it for them and rather than judging someone for their choice of paper be the good neighbour. |  | | |

Or you should have charged him the going market rate for your labour and reported them to the authorities who deal with such matters. |  |

lowhouse has some weird idea that those on the left have no idea what right-wing ideas are, instead of knowing exactly what they are and still disagreeing with them.
Plus, I'm not sure anything Simon Heffer has written has ever been insightful... for anyone. | |

Hmmm, on a slightly serious point, you will have noticed BL, actually used the word “Libtard” to describe himself.
BL didn’t actually say anything bad about the neighbour.
BL made himself and the shopkeeper the subject of the remark.
Good example of self deprecating humour, vs calling other people names or using tropes to demean them.
Something our PM could learn from. |  | | |
