Daily Express published an article criticizing Angela Rayner's workers' rights plan, arguing that extending legal aid for employment disputes would burden taxpayers and empower trade unions, reflecting an anti-worker narrative. The article's framing questions the legitimacy of workers’ rights enhancements and portrays them as tools for union paymasters at the expense of businesses and public services.

A report by Media Bias/Fact Check critiques the Daily Express for its strong right-wing bias, noting its use of sensationalist headlines, conspiratorial content, and pseudoscience. The analysis highlights how such editorial practices contribute to misinformation and bolster authoritarian narratives.

On October 10, 2024, Daily Express published an editorial by Tory MP Greg Smith that criticizes Labour's proposed union laws, describing them as an 'economic own goal' that will stifle business investment and growth. The piece adopts a strongly pro-business stance by dismissing the value of worker rights and union protections, thereby reinforcing a biased narrative that undermines fair labor practices.

The Daily Express published a comment piece featuring a misleading claim about an extra 100,000 illegal migrants per year under Labour, and despite repeated requests by Full Fact and the looming IPSO inquiry, the claim was not corrected for over nine months. This delay in rectifying the misinformation contributed to the prolonged spread of inaccurate data in a politically charged context.
