When I stop trawling the press some readers might find these links helpful

A  As leads to bigger stories with immediate links:-

1. Politics Home -  news stories as they break - best way to keep up-to-date - direct links to the stories - especially good on radio interviews ("Today" etc)   

2. Conservative Home - own stories plus relevant press comment.  Home page is the starting point and this acts as an index to rest of the site - considering the allegiance is rather wetly critical Tory it is highly useful - gets good graphic on Polls

3. UK Polling Report  and associated Swing Calculator  Handles professionally all political polling and comments on implications and technical queries
