I am a Lib Dem, but Iain Dale, Dizzy and Guido have all posted comments here and Iain and Dizzy have linked me to their sites. It indicates to me, as someone who has campaigned against Conservatives all my political life, that they are more open and receptive to listening to others than Labour are.<br /><br />As John Wilkes says, where are they, are they linking to and referring to blogs of other parties ?Nich Starlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04237390959601973501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-33183506093480057592006-11-12T10:50:00.000+00:002006-11-12T10:50:00.000+00:00Well I didn't say that I don't know of any - I tr...Well I didn't say that I don't know of any - I tried to be helpful by suggesting one that I find to be mildly enjoyable and which I've promoted on my site in the past!<br /><br />It's nice to see that you've been analysing my blogroll closely, but it's certainly not a list of the blogs I read. When I happen to come across blogs, I tend to link them. The fact that I've linked six Labour blogs though and can't even remember their political affiliation doesn't say much for their content!<br /><br />If there are over 330 Labour blogs, then I'm sure Norfolk Blogger and I would be happy to hear from you which ones are worth reading. Like Norfolk Blogger, I asked around sometime ago for a decent Labour blog I would enjoy, and no one came back with anything. I talked to a lot of Labour people who are into blogging and they didn't have a clue either.<br /><br />And anyway, if I don't know of any "top class" Labour blogs, having spent a large amount of time in recent months reading different sites, then doesn't that suggest that Labour does have a problem with new media?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-42834381657916768442006-11-12T01:50:00.000+00:002006-11-12T01:50:00.000+00:00John, don't be so ignorant: if you don't know, why...John, don't be so ignorant: if you don't know, why not say that you don't know, rather than coming out with the Iain Dale-esque trope about there either being no Labour bloggers, or none that are "top class", or none that you like or can be bothered to read?<br /><br />I can tell you that there are over 330 Labour blogs, 6 of which have already made your blogroll...<br /><br />There's a whole world out there waiting for you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05376621599111523024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-88810185374386540102006-11-11T23:12:00.000+00:002006-11-11T23:12:00.000+00:00I think you'll find the answer is... that there ar...I think you'll find the answer is... that there are none. I've not come across any which I'd regard as top class. The only one I might recommend is <a href="http://newgolddream.dyndns.info/blog/">Could Have Been a Contender</a> which is run by Adrian Mcmenamin, who was Labour's chief press officer at the last election.<br /><br />Other than that, I really have no idea. You might look at Iain Dale's list of a couple of months ago. It's an interesting question, actually, why is Labour SO bad at taking advantage of new media?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
