TODAY’S column is bittersweet — it is to advise you of our intention to raise the cover price in the new year, by 10p Monday to Friday and 20p at the weekend on the print edition.
We’re aware that as prices rise across the board yet another raised price is a blow to readers but our own costs are no exception and we can no longer avoid our first price increase since 2019.
Demand for newsprint is high and competition among buyers pushes the price up. At the same time the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine affects the price. Russia used to export 900,000 tons of newsprint before sanctions hit.
