On behalf of everyone at LabourList, I’d like to thank all of you who voted for LabourList in the recent Total Politics Blog Awards. This morning the Labour blog results are in and we’re delighted to have been voted the No.1 Labour blog in the UK for the second year running.
Congratulations should also go to regular columnists Emma Burnell and Luke Akehurst, whose blogs are also in the top ten, as well as countless other contributors who are ranked as top Labour or Left wing bloggers. You know who you are, and thank you.
The past twelve months have seen significant transition and growth for LabourList – we’re now read by over 60,000 of you each month (up by 50% from last year), and we plan on going from strength to strength, with a new look site, campaigns and much much more to come over the final months of 2011. And of course, in ten days time we’ll be bringing you our unparalled conference coverage.
