Not really. The branded flours claim to be finer grains but in years of baking, I've never noticed it. The key difference between flours is the protein content (look at the nutritional information).
Bread and other yeasted doughs such as pizza dough need a 'strong' flour - meaning a higher protein content. Strong flours also absorb more liquid when you're using them.
Cakes and pastry work better with 'soft' flour - low protein content.
According to their website, Sainsbury's basic plain flour, their standard one and Homepride all have 9.7% protein.

the Lidl ones and I think aldi the 45p bags are 9.4g and asda is 10.1g per 100 protein but that still makes better pizzas and nan breads etc in my opinion than asda why is that the reason.
