Also catching the eye: Jamie K on the media and the Tories (“the actual bias of people in media London… is tribal rather than political. It reaches towards people who resemble it’s members as closely as possible, or at least resembles their image of themselves. It reaches out to groom them, in the manner of chimpanzees picking nits off each other in a jungle clearing.”) and North Sea Diaries on the problems of EU attitudes to aspiring members – a nice alternate to my earlier, more positive take.
