Economic globalisation			One of the first British newspapers			
Business over humans						Page 20. ‘Trade is not at heart of the EU’.
Global issues						Page 16. ‘
Racial superiority		Page 1-14. Lack of racial diversity, features mainly white people when the theme was about togetherness and the support of one another.				
Nationalism/patriotism		Page 6 ‘…Final parade was so British’.

Regulation						
One-party state		Page 2 suggests the UK is a one party state ‘no alternative’, ‘we are strongest when united’ this shows a very authoritarian perspective.				
Commodification						
Democracy						
Right wing/left wing		Page 2 ‘Tory MPs last night were plotting a course for disaster by seeking to remove Boris Johnson as prime minister’, implying Boris is the best and superior to other PM candidates, as part of the right-wing, Tory party.				Page 18. ‘Boos for the PM’. Left wing as they are saying it is Boris’s fault as he broke strict lockdown rules.
Authortarism/libertarianism		Page 18. ‘Boris Johnson by a country mile is the best Prime Minister to lead the Tory government’.				Page 20. ‘Speaking truth to power.

Newspaper bought by the Daily Mail and General Trust (DMGT) on the 29th of November 2019, for £49.6 million. So it is not entirely left-wing.
