Casting the net – Class Hatred & Wikileaks
Welcome to Casting the net, Liberal Conspiracy’s daily web review. As always, please feel free to share your own recommendations in the comments section.
Highlights
Stumbling and Mumbling – In praise of class hatred
Question That – Theories of the Class War
Westminster Wisdom – Should Chris Dillow be hated for living in England?
Chris Dillow comments on the infamous Gap-Year Blogger, with added class-based bile, only for his readership to open a whole can of whoop-ass. Great read, nonetheless (tongue half-in-cheek? Hmmmm…).
James Graham/LDV – Blog awards: Campaign for Gender Balance announces short-list
I’ve always held a deep-seated hatred of awards, ever since I was scandalously denied a bronze medal for the butterfly at a local swimming jamboree back in 1989. They depress me.
Cassilis – This weeks Think Tank Roundup…
This week featuring those cuddly warmongers at The Henry Jackson Society.
Obsolete – Reporting suicide compassionately.
The media must be more sensitive when reporting stories such as the Bridgend suicides. Sensationalism will only make it worse.
openDemocracy – Is this the end for Wikileaks?
Say it ain’t so! (this is important, people)
NHS Blog Doctor – David Aaronovitch goes to the khazi
Nothing quite like starting the day by pointing and sneering at David Aaronovitch. All together now…
Elsewhere
Blairwatch – Day 1 – 5th Worldwide Security Conference
Paul Linford – Was Neil Hamilton hard done by?
OurKingdom – Should we have more politics on TV?
John Hemming – Sometimes Asbstaining is the right thing to do even at midnight
Peter Black AM – Tories in confusion again
No geek is an island – Barclaycard and the credit crunch – j’accuse

Hey Aaron, Chris clarified in a comment on myblog that his post was deliberate.
Great roundup as ever!
