THE LAST DITCH

Link: Iain Dale’s Diary: Guide to Political Blogs 2008-9: Vote for your Top Ten Blogs.

It’s the awards season and bloggers everywhere affect insouciance. However, I am sure we all want the results to be free, fair and based on a better turnout than a local election. So please get your thinking caps on and email an ordered list of your top ten political blogs. The rules are simple (though Iain’s wording of rule 2 sadly falls short of legal drafting standards of precision):-

1. Please only vote once
2. Only blogs based in the UK, run by UK residents are eligible or based on UK politics [my emphasis] are eligible
3. Votes must be cast before Friday 15 August
4. Blogs chosen must be listed in the Total Politics Blog Directory.
5. You must send a list of TEN blogs, ranked. Any entry containing fewer than ten blogs will not count.

The email address to which you can send your TOP TEN BLOGS is:-

toptenblogs@totalpolitics.com.

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.

Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.

He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that

“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
