The plants smell pretty strong these days

The Scum Online - News: Raid brothers' £38k stash
By now I'm sure that everyone has heard of the 250 police officers raiding a small terraced house under the pretence of terrorism-squashing. After all the expense, shootings and harrassment, it has emerged, much to Scotland Yard's embarrasment, that there was no bombs or terrorist equipment.
Now, over a week later, they say they have found a stash of £35,000 in cash in one of the men's bedroom. Surely, after such rigorous searching, £35,000 would have been spotted pretty quickly? Why do I get the feeling that they have planted this, the police in the U.K. aren't hesitant to do this when it comes to the propaganda war against terrorism, as the Guildford Four and Birmingham Six will tell you.
And of course, who is the first paper to break the news of the new 'find'? The Scum. Only the most Islamophobic of all the mainstream papers, who are guaranteed to frenzy it up beyond recognition of any of the 'facts'.

I have not been readind the Daily Mail, however, I shall endeavour to do so and see if you are right. Although, I would find it difficult to imagine that anyone could top the Sun's schoolyard bullying Islamaphobia.
