In the post immediately below I broke a rule I have to avoid 'blogging about blogging' wherever I can. Referencing blog reactions to a story above the story itself is usually the lazy bloggers way of stoking traffic and generating comments and I'm not keen on that. I also came in for some stick over at Liberal Conspiracy for not being explicit about who I was referring to, perhaps having some sort of agenda and even a suggestion (not entirely serious I'll grant you) that maybe Iain Dale put me up to it!
For clarity and to bring this little off-shoot of a far more important debate to a close the post below was just an entirely genuine question, no hidden agenda and I've never discussed Nadine with Iain. On a couple of occasions in the post I flagged I might be wrong and stood ready to be corrected. As Unity points out here and at LC I was simply taken aback at the strength of reaction and asked the question 'was there any more to this?' From the reaction and the reading I've done elsewhere today I accept the reaction is valid and no, there's no evidence that this is anti-Tory prejudice dressed up.
