Good News Everyone! Prior to my Total Politics award from last week, where I was told I was the 10th best Labour Blog in the UK, I’m delighted (again) and surprised (again) to be given the following award: Once again, having drawn your attention to it (twice), I’d just like to thank everyone who voted [...]
Good news everyone! Long before expected, I’ve entered Number 10! What? No, not Number 10 Downing Street. Something important! I’m officially the 10th best Labour blogger in the United Kingdom. Look, here’s proof in this link, here. Remember, this was democratic and thus entirely legitimate. All the people in the world were able to vote [...]
I started blogging officially on August 20, 2007, just a few weeks before I went to university. Now, just a few weeks before I enter my fourth and final year at the University of Bath, I’m pleased to say my site has come the distance with me. My blog header is a photograph of the [...]

Most blogs fail when the author loses interest, and I admit that I’ve thought “What’s the point of all this?” on more than a few occasions. Nevertheless, I’d like to try and [...]
I had quite a bizarre, rude and aggressive encounter with a bouncer this evening. I was going into a bar with two friends of mine (both of them French) who are a bit older than myself. In the event that they read this and understand it, I’m going to say they are about 34. As [...]
That is that. The End. My year abroad is officially over, as I returned to the UK on Friday. It’s been a year of great change for me, both professionally and personally, in a time of great change in politics and society. This explains my recent redesign. I go back to Nice tomorrow morning to [...]
