List of UK Libertarian Bloggers by Brian Micklethwait

Brian Micklethwait has come up with a list of UK Libertarian Bloggers, which will be an excellent source for “kick the dog in passing” asides over at the Liberal Conspiracy.

This first list is simply my blogroll, severely culled of all non-libertarians. Just for now, I’ll follow an “if in doubt leave it out” rule. I wonder how many that comes to. Here we go:

AngloAustria
Bishop Hill
Blognor Regis
Brian Micklethwait
Burning Our Money
Counting Cats in Zanzibar
CrozierVision
Devil’s Kitchen
Douglas Carswell Blog (yes I reckon he counts – even though he is a Conservative MP)
Ferraris for all
Freeborn John
Freedom and Whisky
From The Barrel of a Gun
Garnerblog
Guido Fawkes’ blog
Libertarian Alliance: Blog
Liberty Alone
Little Man, What Now?
Mark Wadsworth
Michael Jennings
Natalie Solent
Obnoxio The Clown
Oxford Libertarian Society /blog
Picking Losers
Public Interest.co.uk
Rob’s Blog
Samizdata
Sinclair’s Musings
The Adam Smith Institute Blog
The Welfare State We’re In
Tim Worstall
UK Libertarian Party

There must be several wrong inclusions and wrong exclusions just in that severely culled version of my blogroll. But, with apologies for all those wanting to be in, or out, it’s a start. I hope that, any week now, this list may start being of actual use. If for some reason you want to copy it, feel free.

It goes without saying, as people say when they really want to say something, and who in fact plan to to say it several times, that links to further libertarian bloggers to add to this list would be extremely welcome.

I note that Mr Eugenides is not on that list, but then he is not a pure libertarian, as he favours freedom for everyone except Polly Toynbee, who should be placed in an eggcup with a slice of toast on top in an attempt to reduce her role as a major node in the worldwide distribution network for innumerate gibberish.

Anyway, I’d nominate Mr Eugenides for the Micklethwait list.

  1. Not a great list, IMHO. Guido Fawkes a libertarian? Matt Sinclair hasn’t posted on Sinclair’s Musings since the back end of last year and now just posts on the TPA blog who, I notice, aren’t included.

    xD.
