  Now all we need is a list of the top 50 lists!

  It is not just a list. It is telling commentary on how crap my blog has been this year…

  Duncan – whilst I don’t agree entirely with all your thinking, and thus don’t want to seem unduly sycophantic, I think your blog’s scrutiny of Bexley & Sidcup’s kleptocratic fiend of a Tory MP is worth a place in the top 10 (let alone top 50) in itself.

  Didn’t even make it into the top 20. I know where you all live and I’m coming to get you.

  Gavin – why didn’t you just stitch it up?

  Congratulations to this site, & to Mortimer (who is my favourite blogger of all time) for scoring so highly. Also, I hope Steph Ashely will come into her own as she builds up a strong blog and gets readers.

  I am disappointed to see Cicero’s Songs not in the top 10, & I must admit to not liking Norfolk Blogger or Liberal England much, but I don’t suppose they’ll be shedding any tears over that.

  Personally I prefer less directly partisan blogs such as Stumbling and Mumbling, but still. Right, off to find some green blogs to look at

  Just to clarify, that last year a panel of half a dozen LibDem bloggers ranked the blogs. This year they were all voted for by blog readers – 1,142 of them.

  I’m running my own poll, taking this list as a shortlist (excluding myself of course).

  I responded, James Graham. I left blank the blogs I’m not so familiar with. You’ll probably be able to guess which respondent is me

  That’s odd – Lib Dems give me an award for my blog, but it doesn’t feature in the list.

  But I’m not bitter…:-)
