The nternet television station, run from Central London and
involving Iain Dale, Tim Montgomerie and Stephan Shakespeare, has
already made a reputation for intelligent and lively discussion on
public policy and politics – even though it has been going only a few
months. And it is not just a video broadcaster – 18DoughtyStreet
maintains a family of politics-related blogs too.
Following feedback from viewers and bloggers, it is making the
site easier to navigate and adding extra useful content. From now on it
will be possible to replay just about all of the video content on the
station, so that if you miss a programme one evening you can watch it
another day.
Another initiative from the same stable is the launch of a new
blog, centreright.com – which will be a kind of bulletin board for
think-tank ideas, events and publications, and for links to articles
that thinkers on the centre-right find interesting or useful.
We wish them well. The face of political discussion and debate is
changing, and new media like 18DoughtyStreet are breaking the
heavyweight (and state subsidized) broadcasters’ monopoly and showing
what can be done. Watch this space; watch it now.
