My past has caught up with me!

This is scary! I just found the Hansard site giving all my Parliamentary contributions sine 1979.  I am doomed! http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/people/mr-clive-soley

Lords of the Blog in Orbit

Lord Soley 03/07/2009 – 6:38 pm

Lords of the Blog had a coming of age party on Thursday. A number of us celebrated with Hansard and House of Lords staff. The experimental stage has come to an end and we are now an established and ongoing operation. Our readers have helped make this a success - especially those who responded to the survey some months ago. I don't think there are many people who question the importance of new ways […]

Good Lord – it works!

Lord Tyler 18/03/2008 – 3:34 pm

I'm amazed that so many interesting comments have arrived so quickly.  And I understand there have been thousands of 'hits' on the LordsoftheBlog website.  Since the whole purpose of the exercise is to try and make Parliament more accessible to the people we serve, this is clearly already a potential success.  As one of the other ways in which we must improve the relationship between citizens […]
