First Nick Robinson, followed by Adam Boulton then Trevor Kavanagh started ‘blogs’ and now the Daily Mail’s Ben Brogan has started a political blog with gossip.

Ben cites yours truly and Mr Dale as his inspiration, he also has a proper blog with comments and stuff (well the facility if no actual comments as yet).

It would make a change to have someone in the Lobby who doesn’t have to answer to a proprietor or crave access…
