DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Lee Griffin

Think you’ve spotted a blog we should be linking to? Email and let us know!

Neil Stockley finds it’s hard not to focus on the MP’s expenses issue, perhaps to the extent too many “good” MPs are getting tarnished without warrant.

Andrew Reeves is concerned, however, that we don’t forget that the £100k+ expenses are actually mostly for funding their workforce.

Liberal Revolution feels that perhaps the Lib Dem MPs poo doest not pong, and the BBC is once again targeting them unfairly.

Simon Jenkins/CiF shows that the adage “If you are innocent you have nothing to fear” is utter bollocks, and now Jacqui Smith knows it.

Cornish Pip reflects on the future of social work and the truths about what to expect when properly protecting children.

The Sun Lies proves the Sun lies again, knowingly. Deliberate or are they just that institutionally slimy they don’t realise they’re doing it?

5CC on the tabloid language of “now”. All about religious firefighters being respected…

And finally Next Left looks lovingly at April Fool’s day in the media. Or feel free to browse through previous Netcasts
