The Guardian: £5 a month, for exactly the same online service as they offer now.

Everybody else: nothing.

I’m not paying to click on individual pages and I’m not paying for individual days: they can have a relatively small chunk of money that I won’t even miss just so I can look at the one paper that I don’t completely hate. If anything, I’m hoping that paywalling the Sun, Mail etc will make me more productive.
