Things I learnt today
From Iain Dale, of whom most of you will be aware (he's a Tory PPC I think and used to own a bookshop):Over the last few weeks a huge amount of damage has been done to the British blogosphere. Blogwars have broken out between various parties which have made us all appear like obsessive schoolschildren who have nothing better to do with our time than flame each other.
I had no idea. I'm not sure if that's because what he describes is the normal state of affairs in British blogging, or because I just don't visit the sites involved in this. Still we should all be grateful that we are in such a harmonious corner over here, where the only flame wars between thousands of commenters happen amongst my million Chinese readers.
Update: I don't wish to take sides in the dispute, as I have no idea what it is about or among who it is being conducted. And I just spent 5 minutes trying to. So this is just an observation - if the quote "Invaluable view of Westminster Village" by Angus Robertson, an SNP MP, is the best you can come up with I would leave it off my site.
