excellent.

Now he is free to attack Brown who tried his best to get him fired

It would indeed be nice if Melanie Phillips were to apologise for publishing socially irresponsible hysteria on matters of which she knows nothing.

Sadly, I think that would involve her changing the habits of a lifetime.

After his contribution to the defeat of Ken and victory of Boris in the mayoral election, it seems approrpiate that he should end up at BoJo’s old stomping ground. I’m too tribal to wholly forgive him for this, though I think he is a good journo. If he were to somehow get his colleague Mad Mel to retract her comments about MMR as a small attempt at damage-limitation (though it’s too late now I fear) that would be some compensation.

Well he actually seems to be updating that blog which is a pleasant change. The things people will do for money!

No surprise whatsoever.

“Sadly, I think that would involve her changing the habits of a lifetime.”

Fair point.

Why would anybody read her then?

Bright obliterated his own journalistic credibility with his smear-fest against Livingstone, so it’s no surprise he’s ended up working alongside Mad Mel.
