The Full Story podcast with Thomas Mayo was fantastic. As a Yes voter l listened with interest. I hope that we can get a different result for our First Nations people in the future.

Basically the only trustworthy news source left! This is so true.

Disappointed

Hamsly on

Australia

Decent app, now requires an account so it’s pointless trash.

Excellent journalism

Platinum Paddler on

Hello Good Guardian Folk Your journalism is par excellence. My main concern is the sustainability of your product. Presumably adverts underpin business viability. Donations send a mixed message to me. If you depend on donations then the product viability must be marginal? Which is a concern for journalists and readers. I presume that the dilemma is that you want big readership to attract advertisers; if you switch to subscription then readership goes down and advertisers are less interested to pay? I am a former economist, now retiree/pensioner, and appreciate quality journalism and an editorial policy that embraces good science, including climate science, good economics, good social values etc. You are in quite a different paradigm to News Corp, who continue to pay journalists to pander to climate denialists and alt-right politicians. I encourage you to maintain the timeliness, investigative skill, honesty and integrity of your journalism and editorial policies; civil society needs you and the planet needs you. Kind regards Glenn

I paid for a subscription recently. The app upgraded and is forcing me to create an account to log in. WHY? I’m going to stop reading the guardian.

Ruined the fight for me

Why would you notify me of the results of the fight a few minutes after it ended? We were watching it delayed and it sent me the results in a notification…

Feedback

Miasman on

Australia

Still enjoy the Guardian, but noticed over last 12 months, a tendency to avoid in depth analysis of many of the really pertinent events, particularly events of a political nature. Not sure if this is timidity or some other factors…just my feel. Cheers. Jeff.
