Hello Eliz, I have just become your latest subscriber. I have an article about the Liberalism Inc conference that may be of interest to you: https://www.campain.org/post/great-event-on-the-guardian-but-misses-vital-punch-line. Could you please call me straight back about it. Jonathan Coulter, London Borough of Bromley: 0208 402 0217, 07843 383259
Thanks Jonathan, this is interesting stuff! Great to know you were there also, it was an interesting event and I also found a conflict in the ambivalence of some of the answers from journalists.
Hello Eliz, I have just seen your blog for the MRC, where you show links to two Guardian pieces about its first 200 years. So why didn't you provide a link to the I sent you so? It would have counterbalanced the self-congratulatory piece by Kath Viner and pointed out serious failings of the last decade that are not even mentioned in the "what we got wrong" piece. I think you could have done better.
Hi Jonathan - I simply didn't think to, as I am doing this around my other work. Sometimes things slip my mind, and it's impossible to include absolutely everything, of course. That section is also for straight news rather than comment, so I try to ensure I stick to news articles there.
You have the conference video and the two Guardian pieces. As far as I know the Guardian has said nothing about the conference this conference that was highly critical of it, so I think it would be useful if you could circulate an independent commentary like mine.
