PR and advice on getting into it, the occasional rant about political communications and some other bits


  • How the BNP could save British politics

    Disclaimer: The BNP are a pernicious bunch of racist bigots and Nick Griffin may well be intellectually sub-normal, so when I say they might be good for British politics, I’m absolutely not, in anyway whatsoever, condoning their views. (Do I need to be any clearer?)

    I’m going to be out this evening so I won’t be [...]

  • The top 5 paragraphs of all time… ever….

    I forget sometimes that the reason I first went into PR was because I had the idea stuck in my head that I was a half decent writer. I didn’t know what PR was, but I didn’t have time to train as a journalist and I wanted to write so I became a PR. Recently, [...]
