  • Discredit where it’s due


    Malcolm Redfellow's Home ServiceAuthority Authority: 422
    One comes close to admiration for Iain Dale’s unstinting efforts to burnish the jobbie (as he previously did with Dubya in the past — thus allowing Malcolm to reprise a favourite image, right). Dale’s latest brown-tonguing involves Cameron’s volte-face over his “cast-iron guarantee”. Dale started his day ...

  • The Milibandwagons European tour


    Next LeftAuthority Authority: 641
    I was surprised to see several Sunday papers report growing momentum behind the possibility of David Miliband becoming EU High Representative once the Lisbon Treaty is ratified shortly.

  • Iain Dale & Anne Atkins in conversation


    Andrew Allison - A Conservative ViewAuthority Authority: 132
    Ive just listened to a very heated exchange between Iain Dale and Anne Atkins on the Jeremy Vine Show.

  • Watfords liberal Lib Dem Mayor - what Iain Dale didnt report


    LibDemBlogsAuthority Authority: 174
    Tory blogger Iain Dale should perhaps have paused before clicking publish on his latest – highly inaccurate – post, How Very Illiberal of a LibDem Mayor. Those few seconds hesitation would have been sufficient for him to do a quick Google and find out what he was about to write was nonsense. In his article, Iain ...

    Malcolm Redfellow's Home ServiceAuthority Authority: 422
    Malcolm previously commented on that item Iain Dale had a few days back. (Yes—and Malcolm always uses Listerine and  Carex hand-wash afterwards, even if it’s the remaining 1% of bacteria that really worry him). The poster instantly gave Malcolm déjà-vu all over again. It sent him in search of Ronald ...
