Express slashes price

Richard Desmond has chopped the cover price of the ailing Daily Express from 35p to 20p, of the Saturday Express from 50p to 25p, and of the Sunday Express from £1 to 50p. Desmon says the promotion will continue "indefinitely", whatever that means. The Express circulation has gone down by 10% to 883,000 in the past year. Associated say they have no plans to enter into a price war.
