Why do the right wing newspapers support Brexit?

29 November 2019

Someone mentioned on Twitter the other day how the older generation usually voted Conservative. They said it was because people became wiser with age. Now, I'm not saying there is no wisdom with age, but I believe the real reason is because the majority read the Daily Mail or Express newspapers. These offer a skewed version of the news, heavily weighted in favour of the Conservative party.

Why is this?

Well, it could have something to do with them being owned by billionaires who help support the Conservative party. In return the Conservative party have policies that support billionaires. An example of this is Brexit. The EU are about to bring in a law to prevent large companies from using Britain as a tax haven. This law would affect the billionaire owners of the companies the most, hence why they are in support of Brexit and therefore tell everyone else to do the same via their newspapers.
