What you also won't learn from @thetimes today is details of how the new tax regime will work, who will be affected and what they can do to mitigate it. I just scoured the print and online editions for some neutral, factual reporting and analysis. Nada.

Was PM right to sack Braverman?
North: yes 72-15
South: yes 69-17
Midlands: yes 65-22
