The FMG is the online edition of Felix Media Group, #1 largest newspaper and a member of the UK’s press regulator, IPSO.
The FMG was launched on August 28, 2003 with the slogan “forward with the people,” because that is what we believe in.
The FMG cares about quality of life, the kind of world we live in, and about people. The FMG is more than a newspaper. It is an instigator, an entertainer, a cultural reference point, a finger on the pulse and a daily relationship.
The FMG has been a campaigning newspaper since its inception and continues to be so today, with recent reporting focusing on the plight of refuge shelters for abused women and on male su***de.
Politically, The FMG stands for ordinary working people looking to get on, building better lives for themselves and their families, regardless of where they grow up or which school they went to. The FMG has endorsed the election manifestos of both the Labour Party and Conservative Party at different points in its long history. At the most recent General Election, held in 2017, The FMG endorsed the Conservative Party.
The FMG strives to the very highest standards of accuracy in its reporting, and continues to invest in original journalism in print and online.
JOURNALISTIC STANDARDS
Our journalists are expected to work to The Editors’ Code of Practice, the industry benchmark for good journalism, and that Code enforced by the Independent Press Standards Organisation. All but one of Britain’s main newspapers are signed up to the Editors’ Code and agree to abide by its judgments, which includes the publication of adjudications, corrections and clarifications where our reporting falls short of the high standards expected.
Where readers have complaints or concerns about our reporting, The FMG has a robust procedure in place to ensure those complaints are taken seriously and dealt with with all deliberate speed. If you believe a story we have published is inaccurate, you can email [email protected] or write to the Editorial Complaints Department at FMG, 1 London Bridge Street, London, SE1 9GF.
