All: .................................................................
Archdruid: I'm all on my own. In an empty Moot House. With nobody who cares that the Independent has gone from being a serious newspaper to a clickbait-generating sub-Breitbart, left-wing copy of the Daily Mail sidebar. Does anybody care?
Andreas Whittam Smith's Cyberspace Projection: I do.
Archdruid: Yeah, St A - but anyone else?

Archdruid: Come on - surely you must be able to tell us that among the ten reasons for not voting Tory, one is that your nose will fall off?
Charles O'Nians: The printed edition of the Independent is now a thing of the past.
Archdruid: OK then. The Indie has gone and nobody cares. I'm going to go off and wait for Easter Day to break. For lefty papers may come and go - but Jesus is risen forever.
No liberal commentator can be heard in response. A few pages of newsprint drift past in the wind.
The Indie has gone? I heard it here first.
