The Times editorial today is about… me! So let’s focus on these ANONYMISED “leader” columns and who exactly writes them, because they don’t have bylines on them. Because they are COWARDS. So I’m gonna tell you the industry’s little secrets that they don’t want you to know… Here are 3 of the team that write the Times editorials (aka “leaders”)… 1. Daniel Finkelstein: a sitting Tory peer and former Conservative Party adviser. He’s also the reason Chelsea FC was run into the ground following the big Russia focus after the invasion of Ukraine. 2. Sebastian Payne: a former Spectator writer who ran the Tory-aligned Onward think-tank. Sebastian, whose skeletons I know well, has repeatedly sought Conservative parliamentary nominations. In fact, he keeps applying for a seat and I’m told today’s “leader” is his desperate last bid to get in Kemi’s good books. 3. Oliver Kamm: a former Oxford Labour Party Club chairman, an anti-Brexit Blairite, and author of a defence of neoconservative foreign policy. He was a huge proponent of the Iraq war (and still unrepentant). These are the people who set the tone for the Times’s leader column, and these are the people who hide behind the anonymity afforded to them by the paper. I say enough is enough. If you’re going to wantonly attack people in the paper of record, be brave enough to put your byline on the item. It’s time we started sending camermen to these people’s houses, doorstepping them, and making them truly have to own the things they write.
