The Mail and all of the other people and institutions that compose the right generally within politics and the media (i.e the Tories ,Mail,Express ,Torygraph ,Sun etc ) get so used to their worldview dominating the newspapers and at times the television news that it probably comes as a shock to them when they step outside their bubble and hear/ read any alternative perspectives .
The Daily Mail’s owner and editor probably think that their paper sits squarely in the center ground of UK politics. .and not on it’s hard right.

The Guardian is so “irrelevant”, it has a US edition that won the Pulitzer Prize. Compare that with the US edition of the Daily Mail.

No, I think the Guardian would make a nice homeland for them, perhaps in Madagascar, where they could practice traditional craft skills and play klezmer music.

This is most evident in its drama and comedy outputs with their curiously narrow, stilted, but rather cosy view of the world

I’m neither shocked nor worried you’re a Nazi

Oh look, it’s our old friend the ‘argumentum ad populum’ fallacy, popping up again.
