I’ll nominate two: Slugger O’Toole (http://www.sluggerotoole.com) and Organised Chaos (http://www.idlanzakaria.com/blog/). The former because it’s a fine piece of work, the latter because she’s a friend of mine (who happens to have a darn good blog).
-
Ooops, guess I should’ve read the rules more carefully. Idlan’s not actually British, although she does live there. Hey, I still like her blog though.
-
Some nominations:
-
I think perfect.co.uk is worth considering…
-
The Yorkshire Ranter
http://yorkshire-ranter.blogspot.com/ -
My regular reads are Backword, Matt Turner and Chris Lightfoot. (I’d consider nominating Nick as well, but I figure he can do it himself…)
Oh, I’m also told that Shot by both sides is good, although I don’t really see the attraction myself.

The Yorkshire Ranter
http://yorkshire-ranter.blogspot.com/ -
John – you could nominate me, but I’m being all high-minded and neutral and refusing to be considered as I’ll be part of the judging. However, I’m free to nominate SBBS, Green Fairy and Political Betting.
(And just to clarify, this category, as with the other regional ones and best European, is open to all blogs, not just political ones)

Michael Brooke
Slugger O’Toole.

Nick and Matt, obviously, except maybe we should make ourselves ineligible.

Ditto on the Yorkshire Ranter, conveniently located at

I’m with Snoo – perfect.co.uk wins it for me.

The Policeman’s Blog
http://coppersblog.blogspot.com/
“A Journey into the mad, mad world of the British underclass and the Public sector, where nothing is too insane for it to be written down and copied in triplicate. VIEWS EXPRESSED PROBABLY DON’T REFLECT OFFICIAL POLICY (although to be honest I haven’t really checked) David Copperfield is a pseudonym.”

Crap design, eh? Well, guess who I nominate?

http://bloodandtreasure.typepad.comOh, go on then, my Number One nomination is;
-
I’d go for Shot by both sides; Matthew Turner; Blood & Treasure. John recommended Backword. I think he’s barmy, but I’ll second his choice.
-
Tom Coates. Yeah.
-
My blog Cabalamat Journal
-
Aw, shucks, Lenin. You nomitated me. I’ll nominate you right back: Lenin.
I’ll also nominate the Hungbunny. I’ve been reading his site for a couple of months now, and I’m still hazy on what exactly a hungbunny is. But fuck it.
-
And no one seems to have Norm “Blog” Geras yet. So I’m gonna: Normblog.
He’s a professor, you know.
-
I hereby nominate me too, me being Blood & Treasure: http://bloodandtreasure.typepad.com
Also among the elect:

http://www.stalinism.com/shot-by-both-sides/
http://www.backword.me.uk/ -
I should add that if Daniel Davies posted regularly on his own blog, and posted less regularly about statistical regressions elsewhere, this contest would be entirely superfluous.
-
I nominate The Yorkshire Ranter as the best UK blog and as the best political blog. It has rigour, it comments quickly and regulalry on current affairs, sources and links are original and impeccably checked.
A very good read indeed. -
Blood and Treasure, of course:

I nominate: Harry’s Place and The Virtual Stoa

Chase Me Ladies, no contest. And I would have said that anyway.
-
Another vote for the Yorkshire Ranter.
-
Chase me ladies, I’m in the cavalry
-
The Yorkshire Ranter is the best UK blog by far. Political comment is sharp and sound and the bees in his bonnet are consistently interesting.
-
shot by both sides

I nominate Dodgeblogium to recognise all the great writers that contribute to the blog.
