As is typical when I started college (UK college; 16 year's old) I became more politically engaged and found my views tended toward the left. I read the Guardian but before long realised that sagely nodding along to their 'right-on' articles wasn't doing anything to expand or challenge my world view so switched to The Times. My views on some subjects changed and now I'm afraid I too find the whiney, hand-wringing tone of the Guardian (especially Comment is Free... dear God.) a massive turn-off.

I can identify with this.
