The Telegraph is so undignified. Surely you mean the FT....I suppose you have no comment.

saw a discarded ES on the train today - felt like a quarter of its usual pagination
front page was all about how Boris should go on a tube to prove to everyone that its safe to go back to work in London - naked self interest as the collapse in commuters means the collapse in ES advertising and the hopeful collapse of the ES.

Victor Lewis Smith every day.I saw my first ES since March ,yesterday. Didn't pick one up , just saw a pile of them outside Barbican Tube . Haven't read it in years, ironically when it was a paid for paper, I'd buy it 3/4 times a week

I agree, it was better when it was paid for. Not that I ever paid for it. That was why it felt so good when I'd find one on the tube as opposed to the Metro.

The latest Audit Bureau of Circulations figures, give them just under 500k circulation in Sept. 2021, can't seem to check pervious figures any longer on the ABC site, I know it used to be around 800k,
Oh, this report confirms that ^^^, with an increases in losses.
Evening Standard posts £17m loss but says digital transformation 'already showing positive results'
The Evening Standard has reported a £17m loss after Covid-19 more than halved its revenues between April and September last year. Accounts for Evgeny Lebedev’s Evening Standard Ltd, filed with Companies House this week, show the London newspaper’s annual turnover for the year to 27 September...

I assume their losses for both 2020/21 & 2021/22 will be even worst, because of an general decrease in the overall volume of advertising, and increase in home delivery costs.
Although, they will save on printing costs, but what space they have sold will be at lower rates to reflect both the decreased circulation, and the increase in home deliveries - people actually picking up copies are considered more engaged & therefore more valuable to advertisers, compared to those that just have it dumped on their doormat.

That will be a deal with Self Select Distribution, who has an exclusive arrangement to distribute free publications in most the big supermarkets, I've had dealings with them before, they are a accredited distributor by ABC, and provided decent feedback to publishers, managed stock levels per site, and provided audited figures for ABC.
So, I am surprised they leave piles of the ES behind even at closing times, as they have the cost of the disposal, but OTOH I believe they were taken over by the Newsquest, so it wouldn't surprise if standards have gone tits-up.

Last time I saw a copy of the rag there was hardly any original content in it and not even a lot of adverts. Thin gruel indeed. Can't see the point of it any more and can't see it lasting.

or is it that the person who brings one day's papers takes back what's left of yesterday's for disposal / recycling, rather than the supermarket staff dealing with them? - it's not like the shop need to account for how many sold / unsold
now i'm working in central london again, i see them on trolley things so you can pick one up - there aren't the people handing them out that there were before teh plague, so that's some of their costs gone...

I pick one up at TCR nearly every day (there's still someone handing them out there); trying to get all the puzzles in the back done on the train before I get home has been a prime mover in my "disconnecting from work" ritual ever since they went freebie ten years ago or so. It was lack of a replacement for this ritual that was a factor in me dealing so badly with working from home.
The contents of the paper itself have been largely bilge for years though. It's waffer-thin these days and I also can't see it lasting much longer. I'm going to become one of those weirdos who buys puzzle books :|

Yeah, I meant Self Select Distribution has to dispose of 'returns', hence they used to manage copies going into outlets, to keep waste to a absolute minimum. Plus provide figures to the publishers & Audit Bureau of Circulation, showing numbers delivered, numbers picked-up by people, and number of returns.
They were very good at that, when they were independent, but they seem to have been taken over by the giant Newquest.
