UK: Guardian 'could support Lib Dems'

Posted by Valérie Gazzano on October 27, 2004 at 1:48 PM

BBC News announced a surprising news today: " The Guardian's editor Alan Rusbridger has said the newspaper might endorse the Lib Dems instead of Labour at the next election. The paper has in recent years been a firm Labour supporter but backed the Lib Dems in the Hartlepool by-election. The newspaper has been a strident critic of the Iraq war and came out against Labour in the Hartlepool poll, while insisting its advice was a one-off and not a pointer to its general election stance."
