At the end of talks concluding Friday evening, it was agreed that the title should become a co-operative.

Publisher Kevin McGrath has offered to take on historical debts and release the title “debt free” and told the meeting that he would do everything possible to help the success of the transfer to a co-operative.

Terms are to be drafted in time for a full meeting of the Tribune staff, which has to approve the deal, on Monday.

    There’s a dire need for intelligent journalism instead of the pap that’s force fed onto a gullible public, from previously esteemed papers like the grauniad to the gutter press such as the Daily Fail.
