Stop it with the lists. Please.
It's a shame Rupa Huq won't grow some teeth, wouldn't you say?
What are you trying to sell us Iain? Because, whatever it is. I don't want it. Please stop telling me about these meaningless lists.
If you persist I am going to ask the Supreme Leader to put forward legislation to regulate what you write on your blog. You may well have to do some sort of community service where we can see what your doing at a time of our choosing. So beware. This is not an idle or meaningless threat - unlike your lists!
Oh give me a break! Shaun Woodward at 39! I ask you...
This man is the biggest political opportunist going and doesn't have a left-wing bone in his body.
If you insist on doing these lists, at least make them barely credible. I'm now waiting to see where you place Quentin Davis...
Some constructive criticism if I may?
I'm not sure what these lists are for exactly? If you must do them, wouldn't they all be better accessed in one place - say with a link/button on the menu bar or in the side panel?
Sorry, I don't wish to complain but your opinions on Brown's speech would have made for more interesting reading to be frank with you - although perhaps you're doing that for the main stream media before letting rip here? But in any case, a few words might have been nice.
No more lists!
Dear Friend:
Are you ready yet for the November 4th Elections? How about your friends, family, and neighbors?
More Americans are expected to vote this year than ever before in history, so don’t be left out! Be sure to ask everyone you know the following questions:
• Are you registered to vote? If you moved recently, have you updated your voter registration?
• Did you apply for an Absentee Ballot? Do you know your state may not require any reason?
• Can you find your local Polling Place? Do you know it may have changed from last time?
The answers to these questions -- and all your voting needs -- can be found at www.StateDemocracy.org
It's all very well having lists of left wingers. But in true left wing style, what are we going to do to those who appear on it?
In what sense of the word 'left' is John Hutton a left-winger?
Can I just say I love all the lists.
That's "Shriti, Baroness Vadera", Iain, not "Baroness Shriti Vadera"!
And is Shami Chakrabati really a left-winger? I can't recall ever hearing her talk about economics.
