Northern Irish Blog Recommendations
8:30 am in Northern Ireland: Politics by Levee
Right, imagine you were approached by a friend or colleague and asked to recommend a good Northern Irish political blog….
Who would you recommend?
I’ve lamented the state of the Northern Irish blogosphere a while back, and now that I’m starting to get back into the flow of things I’d like to update my reading list. Damien Mulley pulled out a good list of Irish political blogs late last year.
I’d like to see something similar for Northern Ireland specifically. Roll up your sleeves, and help me out with your suggestions in the comments below!
I read on a regular basis, Slugger(for the posts not the commnets), A Tangled Web (for the commnets not the posts!), Balrog, Everything Ulster.
I too am trying to get some friends into blogging. There arent a great deal of northern irish blogs unfortunately, yet.
I’m finding lots of new Northern Irish blogs every week but none of them I’d term as being ‘political’. Maybe Slugger’s got that corner sewn up and to encourage new Northern Irish political blogging he’d have to turn off his comments.
An interesting blog I found today is http://splinteredsunrise.blogspot.com
a title that reads
Fortnight, voice of the neocons
followed by
‘If there’s one thing that annoys my brain on a regular basis, it’s Fortnight magazine. Actually, it’s been annoying lots of people for donkey’s years. How this journal has got away with pissing down our backs for so long is a source of wonderment.’ caught my attention.
I have been bloging for a month now.
Voice4democracy is a site that is exclusive to NI Unionist politics
Can I advertise on here by posting this link for a Northern Irish bloggers surf-ring

the more Northern Irish blogs that join in the merrier.
