So my casting the net is now up on Liberal Conspiracy, and all in all the quality of stuff out there was much better today than in some recent weeks. You can read my extended link below, and by hitting the "continue reading" link you can see the list I published over there.

As you can see I've been a bit sparse with my postings, as I said work is a bit busier and so time to research and post this stuff has been limited by longer hours! Next week I am actually on a bit of a break so hope to have some things up, but at the same time I'm on a bike ride from Bristol to Cornwall so will be absent for part of it also. If you feel like donating money to Children in Need then I'd appreciate you doing it here.

Here is the list as it appears on the other site...

Hello! It's Thursday, and as usual I'm back to offer my thoughts on the best of the web. Check out my blog for an extended list a little later, it'll include some links to the Gary Glitter situation, BBC on Brown and Belgium's potential breakup...

A blog from the back room - Hopi looks at "fairness" and who wins out between Labour and the Tories, though Hak Mao has other feelings.
CiF/Marting Narey - You have to feel appreciative of the sheer amount of optimism from this rose-tinted glasses wearer, but sets out what Labour really should be doing about child poverty.
Peter Kenyon - Peter also wonder's what exactly Labour are waiting for to abolish child poverty for good.
Transform - Steve has an absolutely stunning rebuttal of Dr Ian Oliver's stance that prohibition is an overwhelmingly positive thing.
Cassilis - Are we ignoring the point of what exam grades are for, dumbing down or otherwise?
5CC - Could it be that there is more definite proof out there about inherent racism in the Daily Mail?
CiF/AC Grayling - Mr Grayling almost blows a load over the prospect of a non-religious type as the leader of the UK.
Harry's Place - Everything you think is wrong, the MI5 lay ruin to the idea that you can tell who a terrorist is easily, and with it another foundation the ID card policy was built on.

Casting back:
QuaeQuam Blog (2007) - It's been a year since the Chindamo affair dominated the news, and at the time James looked at how we failed the victims as a society.

And for the extended list, look here!

Liberal Polemic - Tom thinks the minimum wage is a heap of steaming...
SSENCH - A quite brilliant parody of the Gary Glitter situation.
CiF/Erik Jones - More on the potential breaking up of Belgium as all political sides seem unwilling to bring the countries factions back together.
Political Betting - With an interesting flashback, PBC compares Brown's situation to Thatcher in 1990.
Jock's Place - Jock has a well written piece about the situation of airports in this country following BAA being "suggested" to sell some.
Norfolk Blogger - Norfolk thinks that Brown is being subtly assassinated by the BBC, he's spot on about Comical Ali though.
Rob Shorrock - Rob wonders just how energy efficient British Gas are being in their energy efficient light bulb distribution.
Lynne Featherstone - Lynne wants your help to guide Lib Dem policy, do it and maybe we can have less support for things like the awful equality bill from the gold party.
