As you may or may not have been aware, I have been closely following and writing extensively on the recent British election, as I have a fair degree of expertise on Britain's politics, culture, and history (both professional and personal) and found that I could fill a role by informing folks at places like Kos and
Mydd about British politics and what to expect in the (now just passed) election.
As such, and in large part because the recent election's result has left so much uncertain and up-for-grabs in the British political arena, I have decided to continue my writing at a new blog I have created, entitled
Transatlanticism. Think of it, as I'm calling it, as "a British eye for the American guy."
When will Blair go?
Will he go of his own volition?
Is Gordon Brown going to suceed him, as everyone expects? Or are we all in for a surprise?
How does the tension between the "Blairites," the "Brownites," and the unreconstructed (old) Labour backbenchers play out?
Can the Liberal Democrats become a serious option in the minds of the British public? Will they swing left or right to do so?
Will the Tories build on the seats they gained in the last Parliament?
Or will they continue to take the wrong lessons?
Will the Tories win the next election?
Or are they doomed for oblivion?
Will France vote "oui" on the EU constituion, setting up a dramatic British referendum next year?
Answers to all these questions and many more at the new blog on British politics, Transatlanticism.
