This blog is a great source of entertainment whether you agree with the comments or not. |  |
A political blog that occasionally veers into greener pastures, this unfortunately loses points for the fact that it doesn't update often enough. |  |

A right wing blog which maintains too much of an independent spirit to be described as actually Conservative. |  |
With humour in abundance this is a blog that will put a smile on your face, unless you are a communist or member of the BNP. |  |
The posts are by no means short but they are filled with well researched information and give a deep insight into socialism. |  |

As a rule, the contributors to this site tend to highlight what's been going on in the news at either a national or local level. |  |
Unsurprisingly, considering the background of the author, this blog focuses on unions and worker-related issues from a variety of sources. |  |
Not the most regularly updated blog but when it is the blog does express well reasoned opinions and occasionally throws up the odd piece of information you might not find from anywhere else. |  |
As one would expect from a private eye writer, this blog is filled with scathing jokes about everybody. |  |
The Adam Smith Institute gives you all the information you need about the newest tax cuts, bailouts and economic policy. |  |
This is a pretty decent blog for Edinburgh based political stories and opinion. Its also has a nice simple design and a couple of decent little online tools. Just a pity its not updated a little more regularly. |  |
A blog from a Liberal Democrat MP, who tell us all about the thrills and spills from Westminster.
|  |
What problems does the new administration face from Egypt? Why is America in constant campaign mode? These questions are all answered by our fake consultant. |  |
Unfortunately this blog is like that of many MP, MEP candidates who appear to think that setting up a blog is a good idea and a sensible way of harnessing the power of the internet to launch their political careers only to then neglect the blog they themselves set up.
|  |
A candid view of the going's on in the local council of Edinburgh.
|  |
If you've read the biography of this blogger then you've probably read all you need to. |  |
This is a well-presented, regularly updated blog. While it's not the most exciting read, the blog is well designed and it's clear Alan Collins has a lot of interest in politics, as well as designs on one-day becoming a Conservative politician himself maybe? |  |
Alasdair Ross explains the goings on in the world of an Ipswich councillor.
|  |
This interesting and entertaining blog from Scottish journalist Alex Massie covers mainly American topics and provides fascinating and sometimes amusing posts on issues from across the Atlantic. |  |
Alfred the Ordinary's blog has a clean and clear design, a decent comment function allowing his readers to interact with him and is overall a good read. |  |
Always win when you're singing is a great little blog proud of the fact that it was shortlisted for the best new Lib Dem blog - who gave out these awards is slighly less clear though. |  |
This blog is an engaging read and unapologetic in the way in which it expresses its views. |  |
This blog is quite clearly Libertarian in its views and it's difficult to suggest a political persuasion beyond that. |  |
From what we can gather from reading this blog An Englishman's Castle is a Conservative and libertarian blogger. It's a good read, well written and entertaining. |  |
A fairly basic blog with very little in the way of interactivity. This is an OK blog but fails to really excite or even raise the temperature of its reader. |  |
This is generally another blog in the OK category. |  |
While we're not particularly fond of the design of the site - the colours are a little off-putting although we can't exactly decide why - this is a good, clear blog that is regularly updated especially when comapred to many parliamentary candidate blogs. |  |
The simple, basic design of this blog might put some off from examining its content. |  |
Andrew Allison is a Conservative blogger with a big C, a clear Thatcherite who believes the only way the Tories will win the next election will be by being radical. |  |
The blog side of Andrew's campaign website is well maintained and for a parliamentary candidate reasonably well updated. |  |
Updated daily, this is a good local blog by a local councillor - recognised as such by becoming a finalist in the New Statesman's New Media Awards in 2007. |  |
We know that many politically affiliated blogs like to chose colour schemes that are similar to the party they are affiliated to, but the use of green on this blog is a little off-putting. |  |
This particular blog contains Andrew's musings on, well just about anything but there's just enough politics in it to keep us interested - just. |  |
Not a brilliant looking blog nor updated very regularly (when we looked last it had just been updated after being left fallow for a month) but its nice to see a local councillor writing about issues in a local context. |  |
As many people interested in political blogging will know, MPs that blog are almost as rare as hen's teeth. |  |
This is a regularly updated, opinionated and well written blog. |  |
We're not able to tell which political party this blogger is affiliated to but Anglo Noel Natter's left wing credientials are fairly clearly on display. |  |

This is a local councillor's blog and as such it's fine without being the most exciting thing we've ever seen. |  |

This is a decent blog from a local councillor, which is unafraid to share opinions of both a personal and political nature. |  |
Anthony Little is a Conservative local councillor and parliamentary party candidate for the Norwich South constituency. |  |
Iain Dale doesn't update his blog that often at all - approximately once a month if that - possibly in response to the fact that there is a much more famous Iain Dale floating around the blogsphere - but we're obviously speculating here. |  |
The Appalling Strangeness is an entertaining blog whether you agree with the author's politics or not - the blogger used to be a member of the Conservative party until David Cameron started saying the same sort of thing as Poly Toynbee apparently. |  |
Seemingly left-leaning and libertarian in many of its views its difficult to describe a firm political affliliation for this blog. |  |
Archbishop Cranmer is ranked the 22nd 'most influential political blog' and the 24th most 'influential blog' in the UK by Wikio. |  |
Need to know what campaigns are going on, election results or job opportunities within the Lib Dems? Look no further. |  |
