    If he keeps blogging, why not just read his blog? (unless you're referring to the online Telegraph)

    Just maybe, it was stunts like this that got him fired?

    Was he actually fired? His last blog post just said he was off to pastures new.

    Mel Philips was shown the door by the Mail for her frothing at the mouth on Iran whilst appearing on QT.

    It's on YouTube. Take a look, it's quite an eye opener.

    I actually agree with her on some things, just not her rabid Zionism.

    Martha Gill did a great job of winding up old farties last week with a column about what older people shouldn't say to young people. Lots of 'yoof of today' and 'in my day' rants from people who were undoubtedly being baited so they'd look at the adverts aimed at wealthy baby boomers. She makes me chuckle.

    That traditional left v right wing partiality is crumbling.

    These days all the papers are desperately scrabbling for any readers they can get.

    While I appreciate that it is good to have a view from the other side of the fence, I normally expect to turn to the Telegraph to read content that largely chimes with my own views.

    Now, to add insult to injury Dellers has moved to pastures new leaving a gap for, no doubt, yet another surplus to requirement hand wringer from the Grauniad.

    May be moving back to the Times. At least they've got Rod Liddle.
