That's because it's worthless.

So are all the others (accompanied by filthy look).

So's cancer.

So's dogshit.

So's tap water.

So are plastic bags from Asda.

So's a kick in the teeth.

So's South Africa (in theory anyway).

So's Willy the fucking whale.

So was school milk.

So's the Polish Express.

So are adverts on the Gumtree.

So's what pigeons eat.

And my own personal favourite (although I'm yet to try it out myself): So's my choice NOT to take your piece of shit free newspaper, you overzealous purple-t-shirted fucking fuckwitted TWAT!!!

"Nothing's free" - Sound profound without much effort.

My first job in London was to give out free newspapers (Commuter News) at Victoria (Wed) & Charing Cross (Thur). Shouting "Free paper, ya cunts!" for 15 minutes till we were sure the dickhead in the delivery van wasn't coming back, then throw what remained in a skip, then the pub. Paid in postal orders + the dole wuz happy and come ahead with the smartass comments from the sweaty-armpit mob cos I got up an hour ago & the day promises so much, now off you go home.

Ask for 135 copies, then see if they're still so keen.

I actually felt sorry for the poor woman on Bishopsgate I saw the other evening loaded down with her London Lites who looked like she was completely aware of the TWATishness of her purple outfit and silly hat.
