The Guardian is a British broadsheet newspaper published by Guardian Newspapers Limited. It is a serious newspaper with left-leaning politics.

Originally called the Manchester Guardian, it was founded in Manchester in 1821 by a group on non-conformist businessmen. Its most famous editor, Charles Prestwich Scott made the Manchester Guardian into a world-famous newspaper.

Guardian Newspapers Limited also publishes the Observer Sunday newspaper, and their sister website Guardian Unlimited.

It is sometimes known affectionately as the Grauniad because of its occasional typographical errors.
