Oliver Kamm is the political blogging equivalent of shouting “I’M NOT SHOUTING!”.
I do enjoy his political analysis but his “my family have been in the media for several generations so I don’t see why I should have to put up with the oiks online” attitude does rather grate on one.

Does he have a famous family?
