Welcome to the new Liberal Democrat bloggers

This used to be a regular feature on Liberal Democrat Voice, but it faded away as blogging became less fashionable.

My cheeky offer to take over the Golden Dozen having been rebuffed, I thought I would revive it here.

Ryan Cullen has kindly sent me a list of new or revived blogs that have recently been added to his LibDemBlogs aggregator.

I hope to make this a regular feature, but whether it will run every month or less frequently remains to be seen. If you have a new blog that you would like to appear, please add your blog to LibDemBlogs.

Anyway, welcome to the new Lib Dem bloggers...

Explorer Laura (written by Laura Gordon) is not a new blog, but it had been dormant for a couple of years before the shock of 7 May. Subjects blogged since then include the Social Liberal Forum and Burundi.

Lib Dem Fightback is another revived blog, written by "a small group of party members and Lib Dem Voice contributors". Its new purpose is to see Tim Farron elected as party leader.

Nicholas da Costa began his blog a couple of days after the general election and has so far written on Belarua and keeping the bastards honest.

The Liberal Queen (written by Hannah Ashworth) is another blog born since the general election. So far it has covered the seven-day NHS and votes for 16- and 17-year-olds in the European referendum.
