So I've thought about starting this for a while, but I've really had an idea on how. I'm writing now because of two events. Firstly, the visit yesterday of Harry Cole (News Editor of the Guido Fawkes blog) to St Andrews, discussing the question of Scottish independence, the various actors, and how that campaign may play out. The second event was the defection of Alexandra Swann from the Conservatives to UKIP. Deputy chair of the Conservatives youth wing until the last election, Swann's defection is shocking because of how easily she could have moved up the Conservative ranks. This defection is a coup for libertarians and Euro-sceptics.
2012 is an interesting year for libertarians with Ron Paul forcing himself to the front line of the American political debate and the Eurozone crisis firmly entrenched in the headlines. I hope to use this blog to discuss political events on both sides of the Atlantic, I hope you like what I have to say.
