According to the Audit Bureau of Circulations, its circulation had dropped to 443,257 as of December 2009[update][1] and to 313,477 as of December 2010[update], from which its management inferred a readership of 868,000.[2] Readership continued to tumble to 264,434 by the end of 2013, and has half the circulation of rival The Sunday Telegraph.[3]
