United Kingdom Broadsheets
In the United Kingdom, two major daily broadsheets are distributed nationwide, and two on Sundays:
- The Daily Telegraph and The Sunday Telegraph – broadly right-wing
- Financial Times
- The Sunday Times – broadly centre-right
As of April 2011, the average circulation of The Times was around 450,000, The Daily Telegraph 640,000 copies daily, and the Financial Times around 372,000, while the circulations of The Guardian and The Independent, both of them previously published in broadsheet format, were 264,000 and 181,000, respectively.
The Herald and The Press and Journal are Scottish broadsheets, though the latter is not a true national newspaper as it is primarily distributed in North East Scotland.

Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:
“And hereby hangs a moral highly applicable to our own trustee-ridden universities, if to nothing else. If we really wanted liberty of speech and thought, we could probably get it—Spain fifty years ago certainly had a longer tradition of despotism than has the United States—but do we want it? In these years we will see.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“Rev. J.D. Liddell: The Kingdom of God is not a democracy. The Lord never seeks re- election. There’s no discussion. No deliberation. No referenda as to which road to take. There’s one right, one wrong. One absolute ruler.
Sandy: A dictator, you mean.
Rev. J.D. Liddell: Aye, but a benign, loving dictator.”
—Colin Welland (b. 1934)
