This question: "You mention on your blog that you 'support the general wish to keep the Mail an evening paper' and that 'redoubled investment in the online platform will be crucial to Trinity Mirror's future success.'
"Do you think that Trinity Mirror have money to invest? And if not, where should the investment come from? Do you believe that local newspapers are a public service worthy of government support/investment?"
