Here are some of the posts made on Spectator.co.uk over the past week:

The Autumn Statement

Fraser Nelson says that, with growth evaporating, Osborne's chosen more debt over more cuts.

Peter Hoskin points out that the dreary forecasts might actually be far too optimistic.

James Forsyth thinks Osborne did well considering the situation, and still has the upper hand.

Jonathan Jones looks at what the public made of it all.

And Peter Hoskin and Jonathan Jones present the key points in chart form.


Fraser Nelson
sifts through the latest report on this summer's riots.

Peter Hoskin takes a stroll around Westminster to meet the strikers.

James Forsyth says Marty Feldstein's right: fiscal union won't solve the euro's problems.

Jonathan Jones reports on the latest attempts to measure General Well-Being.

Daniel Korski asks why Angela Merkel's so popular, and says we can expect more atttacks like the one on the British embassy in Iran.

On the Book Blog, Emily Rhodes says she'd sooner buy a beautiful book than an ugly one, and David Blackburn meets macho legend Andy McNab.
