I thought it was more left leaning or in the middle. I have found some incredible articles on this site.
Go to Wiki and read the background on it. It is a conservative tabloid.
It appears you are right. I have found some very informative articles in it. They had one article I remember that touted the fact that Black people had the highest literacy rate in England. I dont have a big problem with conservatives. I have a problem with racism.
I think the essential thing to keep in mind is the New Statesman criticizing Merkle. First, the UK is very sceptical of the EU. They UK does not want to be under the thumb of EU central. The UK wants to maintain their individual power. Germany is possibly the biggest and strongest economy in the EU, except perhaps for the UK. Given those dynamics, the UK has concern for Merkel's and Germany's power as far as the EU. So, I would be sceptical about the article in the New Statesman. And, in general, I'd be sceptical about anything a tabloid like the Mail publishes.
