The latest blog of Bridget Fox, Lib Dem PPC for Islington South and Finsbury, is now live over at The Guardian’s website, with thoughts on on recession, RBS and responsibility.

The Guardian runs the map of the spread of BNP membership across the country, following the leak of the membership lists by what appears to be a disgruntled former member. Their membership in Camden seems to be very low, with a couple of members in Gospel Oak and, bizarrely, in Bloomsbury.
