spectacular change of mind

Arch-Conservative Charles Moore: "I'm starting to think that the Left might actually be right" http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/8655106/Im-starting-to-think-that-the-Left-might-actually-be-right.html - — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.4.48.10 (talk) 14:45, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

'A free country' and the Euan Ferguson response

A curiosity here is that Euan Ferguson's response] pre-dates Moore's signed leader] by over a week. Clearly one or both of the dates differs from the hard copy version by several days, but can another editor please try to ascertain the correct details.

Margaret Thatcher: The Authorized Biography

I've created a redirect to this article from Margaret Thatcher: The Authorized Biography as he is the author, though I think there's plenty of scope for it to become an article in its own right. Paul MacDermott (talk) 11:58, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography

I have created a Bibliography section using cite templates. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.

Owen Paterson support

I've removed this on several grounds: it seems insignificant beyond a current news interest. Half the section seemed to be gossip about friendship with the PM, and no obvious connection to the Paterson affair, one of the linked articles made no mention of Paterson, the other was paywalled, so I assumed the same irrelevance. Note it's ok to point out Moore's support of Paterson (if indeed he does), but it needs a lot better presentation than the section removed, and some explanation as to why it's relevant or needs it's own section, rather than a line or two in another.
