Been reading for quite some time.

Very ahead of the game, well respected by all. Paul has shown the left how to run a blog properly and make it into a business model.

I have had a couple of late night drinking sessions with Paul and Harry at Conservative Conferences. Got to be the last ones standing...

Sadly I can't stand either his writing style or page layout, so I don't read it. I know it has interesting things to read, but I don't have the inclination to find them.

I quite liked it at first but feel as though it has declined in the last year or so. It used to feel like incisive and penetrating online journalism but now feels more like a somewhat shallow propaganda machine.

(It was arguably better when Labour were in government.)

propaganda for whom?

As none of the guys there have much favour for either of the right wing parties (UKIP & Conservatives)

They are still fairly small-c conservative and right wing, even they are not a party mouthpiece. Nothing wrong with that of course, but as a critic of those in power, I always found them more incisive when Labour were in government.

Just comes across as a Tory blog these days. Few sign of real libertarian thinking.

Thought I would check this by looking at it.

Hardly pro Government

I will admit there are certain people in Government that different members seem to post about with a bit of man love. Primarily though. Still very much not propoganda.
