The Blood is The Life 15-05-2012

• The election result shows we are asking the wrong questions
  Two quotes from this, which I think demonstrate that the writer gets it: "Every decision that is made that goes against what we believe in does significantly more damage than bringing in a policy that we do." and "for every list of things we can produce that we have done well, people produce a list of things that ‘we’ have done that is far worse and many feel offended by. Providing a cherry picked list says that we are not listening to their concerns."

Meme via Caron's Musings: What did I Blog About For the Last Five Years?

Caron has done a retrospective, so I am shamelessly copying her in lieu of actual content:

• May 15th 2007 - Welcoming a new f-lister, some stuff about My Life, and a meme


• May 15th 2008 - a feed of my posts to Twitter for the previous 24 hours


• May 15th 2009 - a pre-BloodIsTheLife linkspam


• May 15th 2010 - two beer and politics related posts; the first to do with Lib Demmery, and the second to do with a Take Back Parliament demo I went on.


• May 15th 2011 - I reckon this one is the most interesting of this random sample. It's a political compass-style graph of the positions of the various main political parties and various people within them.

What have you lot blogged about for the past five years?
