  1. Therer’s a new anti-Conservative web-blog in Wallasey called “Sister Mary” concentrating on Moreton and Leasowe Wards. Now the Labour Party are strongly denying its anything to do with them but then again Mike Russell MSP denied the the web blog “The Universality of Cheese” had anything to do with the SNP but until it emerged that the man behind the site was Mike Russell’s office manager

  2. Isn’t “blog” simply an abbreviation for “weblog” anyway?
