Here's an example of how it's not never wrong. Not only did it publish significantly misleading information, it also tried to defend that significantly misleading information!

Alas, on climate change, it's well behind The Times and Guardian for accuracy.

Former Tory MP Owen Paterson claims ‘unfair’ lobbying investigation breached his human rights
Brexiteer takes case to European Court of Human Rights – despite previously railing against Strasbourg influence
Former Conservative MP Owen Paterson has claimed that the lobbying investigation that sparked a government scandal ending with his resignation breached his human rights.
He has lodged a formal complaint with the European Court of Human Rights, which formally asked the British government to respond to his allegations on Tuesday.
Mr Paterson has complained to the Strasbourg court that his Article 8 rights under the UK Human Rights Act, relating to respecting his private and family life, had been infringed…
… Mr Paterson – a staunch Brexiteer who was a member of the Tories’ hardline European Research Group – had previously called for the UK to be “freed from the writ” of the European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR).
In a 2014 speech, he said Brexit would allow for repeal of the Human Rights Act and allow Britain to “break free” from the Strasbourg Court which oversees the ECHR and human rights laws.
“Much of the problematical immigration into this country stems not just from the EU but from the European Convention of Human Rights,” Mr Paterson said.

His ilk ?
It shows what an ass he is, it has no relevance to anyone else.

On the other hand, maybe like many people in the UK, he's changed his mind since 2014.

Well let's see if any of his former cohort try to actively distance themselves. I think their silence and lack of condemnation will be deafening, after all it's the slime that makes the slimeballs stick together and they're all a chip off the same block.
If he was still an MP I wouldn't be surprised if he turned out to be one of the ones that would claim the cost of Christmas parties back on expenses. I expect there'll be some and I expect they'll be slimeballs too.
