Welcome to the third CoffeeHousers’ Wall.
CoffeeHousers’ Wall is a new feature on Spectator.co.uk. Every Monday, we’ll put up a ‘wall’ post and – provided your writing isn’t libellous, crammed with swearing, or offensive to common decency – you’ll be able to say whatever you like in the comments section.
There is no topic, so there’s no need to stay ‘on topic’ – which means you’ll be able to debate with each other more freely and extensively. There’s also no constraint on the length of what you write – so, in effect, you can become Coffee House bloggers. Anything’s fair game – from political stories in your local paper, to chat about the latest football results.
But, more than anything, we want this wall to become a means of better communication between the Coffee House team and you, the readers. If you want us to write on anything in particular – add a comment to the wall. If you want to ask us any questions – add a comment to the wall. If you have any thoughts about this wall feature – add a comment to it. The Coffee House team will do its best to get involved in the conversations that you start.
To give the wall a splash of colour, you can even send your photos and videos in (on phoskin @ spectator.co.uk) and I’ll select the best to put at the top of the post. This week we have a cartoon from London Calling. Any pictures of by-election campaigning? Any videos of interesting debates? Do send them in. The hope is that this kind of thing should come into its own during, say, an election. But it ought to be quite useful – and, perhaps, even fun – in the meantime.
