• the United Kingdom’s highest-circulated daily newspaper
• According to a December 2004 survey, 53% of Daily Mail readers voted for the Conservative Party, compared to 21% for Labour and 17% for the Liberal Democrats
• the Mail from the start adopted an imperialist political stance taking a patriotic line in the Second Boer War, leading to claims that it was not reporting the issues of the day objectively
•  It was the first newspaper to recognize the potential market of the female reader with a women’s interest section
• Lord Rothermere was a friend of Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler, and directed the Mail’s editorial stance towards them in the early 1930s
• Rothermere and the Mail were also editorially sympathetic to Oswald Mosley (leader of the BUF) and the British Union of Fascists.
• The term “suffragette” was first used in 1906, as a term of derision by the journalist Charles E. Hands in the Mail to describe activists in the movement for women’s suffrage, in particular members of the WSPU. But the women he intended to ridicule embraced the term, saying “suffraGETtes” (hardening the ‘g’), implying not only that they wanted the vote, but that they intended to ‘get’ it
• On 16 July 1993 the Mail ran the headline “Abortion hope after ‘gay genes’ finding”. Of the tabloid headlines which commented on the Xq28 gene: (Xq28 is a chromosome band and genetic marker situated at the tip of the X chromosome which has been studied since at least 1980. The band contains three distinct regions, totaling about 8 Mbp of genetic information. The marker came to the public eye in 1993 when studies by Dean Hamer and others indicated a link between the Xq28 marker and male sexual orientation.) the Mail’s was criticised as “perhaps the most infamous and disturbing headline of all”.
• Following the November 2015 Paris attacks, a cartoon in the Daily Mail by Stanley McMurtry (“Mac”) linked the European migrant crisis (with a focus on Syria in particular) to the terrorist attacks, and criticised the European Union immigration laws for allowing Islamist radicals to gain easy access into the United Kingdom. Despite being compared to Nazi propaganda by The New York Times, and criticised as “reckless xenophobia,” and racist, the cartoon received praise on the Mail Online website
• There have been accusations of racism against the Daily Mail. In 2012, in an article for The New Yorker, former Mail reporter Brendan Montague criticised the Mail’s content and culture, stating: “None of the front-line reporters I worked with were racist, but there’s institutional racism [at the Daily Mail]”

In summary, the Daily Mail is an openly Tory newspaper, and is a repeat offender of racist, homophobic and sexist attacks. It historically supported the Nazi party. After WWII, it stopped supporting the Nazi party, but still holds right-wing views and refuses to apologises on its offensive comments.
