No, the "Mail & Guardian" is a South African newspaper whereas the
Guardian behind www.guardian.co.uk is a British newspaper (as the suffix
suggests). AFAIK they have no connection other than a shared name.

I think they do. The Mail & Guardian was the Weekly Mail back in the day,
and I
think they have syndicated some of the UK Guardian's content. Was a shitrag back
then, still is. In my humble opinon, of course.

More about its history:

It always amused me to hear it referred to as "The Meekly Wail". Appropriate
spoonerism if ever there was one.


I stand corrected.
