Hello and welcome to Floating Voter.
A world view that's not blinded by an affiliation to a political party
Mission statements always seem pretentious. Take the The Economist's for example. It claims to take part in:
"a severe contest between intelligence, which presses forward, and an unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress."
Good but it's not for me. I'll just end up getting knocked and bruised in this intelligence "contest". Over at spiked.com they want to raise:
"the horizons of humanity by waging a culture war of words against misanthropy, priggishness, prejudice, luddism, illiberalism and irrationalism in all their ancient and modern forms."
Hard to argue against a prejudice war but raising the horizons of humanity... Moi?So I'll keep my intent simple. I'm a political orphan. Left? Right? Neither. I've never had any affiliation to any party. Any topic discussed here will be agenda-free. A politically unbiased look at the world.

So what newspapers do you read Political Orphan?
If you're a genuine floating voter then surely it's the whole gamut - from the Mail to the Morning Star, Spectator to Socialist Worker?
