One thing I didn't mention yesterday was the attitude socialists should take toward awards and lists. I understand some on the left take umbrage at them, but as far as I'm concerned anything that can introduce socialist bloggers and socialist politics to a wider audience is a good thing. That's one reason why I haven't and won't be boycotting Iain Dale's annual poll, and why I'm submitting the following ten to the Orwell Prize for Blogging.
Without further ado:
A 'Racist' Strike? - on the outbreak of strikes at Lindsey oil refinery in late January.
Goodbye Jade - Jade Goody succumbed to cancer amid a tawdry media spectacle. This is what I thought about it.
Men of the People - while everyone was going frantic over expenses, this post takes a look at the second jobs of selected shadow cabinet members.
Marxism and Michael Jackson's Death - a Marxist look at the celebrity and demise of the King of Pop.
Daniel Hannan, the NHS and Twitter - what the Twitter storm around Daniel Hannan's attacks on the NHS say about the relationship between media and politics.
Murdoch: The Blogger's Best Friend? - I look forward to the time when Murdoch rolls out his pay walls.
Nick Clegg: Closet Socialist? - first of a two part review of Nick Clegg's pamphlet, The Liberal Moment.
Move Over Labour? - the problematic nature of the political space to Labour's left.
Porn As Ideology - is it useful to think about porn as an ideology?
The Lifespan of Political Blogs - 21 months on average, in case you're wondering ...
