I’d spotted this blog a day or two ago, but hadn’t quite realised that a) it had only just gone live and b) it’s the first blog from a government minister:
David Miliband’s blog at odpm.gov.uk
Miliband is Communities and Local Government Minister, and is in the Cabinet alongside Prescott (I won’t stoop to making comments on what a blog from the latter would read like). As the blog is hosted by his department he can’t indulge in party political points. He introduces it by saying:
“This blog is my attempt to help bridge the gap – the growing and potentially dangerous gap – between politicians and the public.”
It should be worth keeping a tab on.
Here’s eGovMonitor’s ‘First Minister of blogging‘ comment piece.
