I like the shortness of the articles. I don't want to be bombarded with information. I like the frank letters at the back of the paper as I love to hear the opinions of real Londoners."Helen Johnson - 25, Marketing Exec
For me, I really like the idea of the paper - and I like the fact that they are trying to do something different with press. I like the fact that it is picture-heavy early on and all the going out/staying in and reviews sections."Rod Winter Reynolds, Media Buyer, New PHD
It provides me with a great summary of all the news that is out there. It's an upbeat, easy read for the journey home."David George - 36, City Trade
The fashion pages are the best of any newspaper I have seen."Yugoti Abuddu - 19, Student
Darren Burroughs, Press Manager, ZenithOptimediaAlready for me the purple jackets of
thelondonpaper are as much a part of London as the Evening Standard vendors. Great product and essential for the tube journey home!"
