Labourlist

Derek Draper's promise to even up the Conservatives' domination of the blogosphere took a small step forward over the weekend with the quiet launch of the beta version of the Labourlist website, complete with an interesting post from Peter Mandelson, and a weird picture of his Second Life avatar.

The site is pitched in a different way to Labourhome which has a pretty much 'anything goes' policy on content. Labourlist instead focuses on generating debate and content from senior party figures. Which is probably why it has been totally mobbed by disruptive and negative comments from 'Tory trolls' as they are affectionately known. Who are these people?!

It's intended as a serious space for party activists and those with a genuine interest in positive debate, so worth checking in to see what some of the key party figures have to say.
