I wish.
You may be surprised but editor of the Standard, despite the fact it's a freebie, is a big deal journalistically. I will be reading the tone, leaders and city pages much more closely.

The Standard is a pile of shit and always has been

Not quite.
It's formerly the same publisher, sure. There are similarities, obvs. It's now owned by some russian type. But it was pro remain. It doesn't do immigrant scare stories. Cares not for X causes house prices to rise, as how could they get any higher?
Doesn't tell us we're all going to get cancer, as we smell and inhale those fumes all day long.
It has given both former mayors an easy ride, and hasn't said a word about the new mayor dropping more than a few pledges.
And apart from anything else, I like the easy crossword.

Don't forget the classifieds
I got a job once from an ad in the standard. It got me the hell out of London too thank God.

Same 5 crosswords slightly re-arranged each day.

Did you forget to write the clue by any chance?

Well it can't be 'I've' can it?
But apart from that spot on.

Don't be silly, "you've" wouldn't fit in the little boxes.
Unless you wrote them really small...
Aha! It's "you've not got a clue"

Good riddance
The man who promised an emergency Budget to punish the great unwashed and little people if they dare vote Brextit. Utter wanker. Take him and his like in coaches to see what this country is really like. The working poor, Pound Shops which have sales. Austerity only for the little people Gideon to bail out his mates and make sure their lifestyles are not interfered with.

Blew a head gasket.
Helped the Tories in their hour of need.
What was he hoping for? The decency of a reach around? Ha!

Massive, MASSIVE Cunt
I can only hope that as he draws his final breath is that Death calmly says "Now, about the bill..."

I can only hope that at that point Gideon doesn't have two coins to rub together.

Am I the only one who likes him?
Anyone who rocks up to the commons tripping balls like that deserves some measure of respect.
