Ian Dunt is the editor of politics.co.uk. After studying philosophy at University College London, he spent the next year travelling from London to Beirut before undertaking a Masters in International Relations.

Ian worked in the research and marketing departments of various NGOs before settling on journalism. He began his career with pinknews.co.uk, which he joined as an intern before eventually becoming stand-in editor. He also contributed to the Independent before moving on to politics.co.uk, first as an intern, and later as editor.

A political obsessive, Ian also writes regular dating columns for lifestyle magazines as well as managing his own specialist interest websites in his own time.

You can contact him on 0870 898 2330 or at ian.dunt@politics.co.uk.

Alex Stevenson is deputy editor of politics.co.uk and the website's Westminster correspondent. After leaving Cambridge University, where he set up a news service at Cambridge University's student radio station, he worked in the House of Commons for the Liberal Democrats, wrote a guide to shooting film locations overseas and put in a stint at the BBC History Unit.

Campaigning for the 2005 Cheadle by-election proved, once and for all, that participating in active politics was far too much like hard work. Journalism beckoned as a result and the last few years have seen Alex's focus shift towards the twists and turns of British party politics from the sidelines. He now specialises in foreign policy and international affairs and is based in parliament.

Alex can be contacted on 07853 005640 when Parliament is in session and via his email address alex.stevenson@politics.co.uk.
