There is a separate section for Scottish papers.

Well, Brian ... that certainly sent me skittering to check! I hadn't actually looked at 'Europe' but on closer examination, kat's link mentions only England from what I see (no Wales, but also no Scotlan & N Ireland?) Strictly speaking, listing NWales Newspapers under England might have some element of truth about it - seems that I remember the group's head office being somewhere like Chester or thereabouts ...

I'm surprised Sian didn't comment on the anomaly of having the Welsh newspapers listed under England.

You're so right, kat. I check the Canadian press daily (online) just to get a different slant on what the Blair Bush Project is cooking up. Just today, I've added Australia and New Zealand to my reading. Wish my French was better so that I could extend my horizons further.

OK - all national papers are going to see their homeland as the centre of the universe, but at least I can build up a broader picture of ... hmmm ... maybe 'reality' isn't the right word. But you get my drift.

Thanks for all links above.

None of the Murdoch group's Australian papers. I think one has to pay to get bits out of them.

Can't add this to my favourites - can anyone tell me why not?

AND (he said with hands on hips!) what's wrong with the 'Maidenhead Advertiser'! We live near Maidenhead, Berkshire, UK and the Advertiser is our local paper (and a very good one too! And as for the name of our town - don't worry about the jokes - we've heard them all before!

Just found this neat site while looking for something else. In these volatile days, I thought some might find it interesting to peruse:

Newspapers of the World, online

Enjoy,
