Sun, Times, Daily Mail, Daily Star and more newspapers at a London supermarket. Picture: Shutterstock/BrookgardenerThe UK’s national newspapers in print now cost on average 13% more than they did one year ago after continued cover price increases. (Press Gazette’s comparison is for the main UK-wide national newspapers, excluding – for instance – the Scotland-based Sunday Mail and Daily Record). The Sun saw a bigger growth from 80p to £1, putting it joint with the Daily Mail, which increased from 90p last year. The FT Weekend remains the only UK newspaper to cost more than the average pint of draught lager (£4.69 in November).
