Funnily enough at the fabian Blogging seminar at conference Mr Draper opined "I don't know how anyone doesn't see that what I said is completely right" OWTTE. Spooky or what? LL has all sorts of problems just now. But it is in Beta and is already improving hand over first. LabourHome has different problems. I am enthusing about the project in the way that ever Labourist ought to do. It needs a nudge nudge nudge and I am prepared to be a critical friend in that process. It's in Beta for another three weeks. Derek needs to calm down a lot. Pick his battles. Or, having lit the blue touch paper, retire to a safe distance and leave it to others to front. At the site at least. “Second, everything I said is completely right” says Will.
