William Davies at OurKingdom writes that the government should throw caution to the wind in devising new systems of financial risk management.

Charlie Beckett at the Polis blog discusses Murdoch and the Media Committee, suggesting that this has become a political battle and the ‘not fit’ line has over-reached and could backfire.

Robert Peston muses on the boom and bust of Mervyn King and the Bank of England.

Dan Sage at Shifting Grounds analyses the battle for blue collar Britain.
