"Is Peter Black AM going to cheer on England or not?"
er...yes!
Iain
Why not so many Labour blogs? I would have thought it was reasonably obvious: after nine years in power- which is about the life-time of the blogosphere anyway- supporters have fallen by the wayside- just as Tory ones did during the nineties. Nothing like opposition to stoke the fires of indignation and militancy. If I weren't so partisan myself, I'd say it was a good sign for sustaining a robust democracy in our otherwise worryingly apathetic politrical culture.
Thanks for the plug Iain. I'm afraid that you won't get as many new visitors to your site because I've mentioned it on mine as I've had from this mention on yours.......
"er...yes!" - Peter Black
You had to think about it though, didn't you.
Iain. How many blogs do you actually read when making this selection, because the same ones keep on cropping up again and again. Is that because they are consistently good or because you only select from a few?
Chris, I thought I was using quite a variety. Obviously I can't read everyone's but I try to put in what i think is an interesting cross setion.
I have just seen you on Newsnight and learned of the existence of your IT organ. Two questions . where do you get this old drivel ? What the hell has happened to your hair ? Roger Pope
