Top of the political blogs: GUIDOTop of the political blogs: GUIDOThe witty but controversial blogging website GUIDO FAWKES has been crowned the UKs top political blog out of 50.
A survey was carried out by the newly created website TotalPolitics, where people were asked to vote for their top blog.
And what is revealing by the poll is that the majority of the blogsites in the top ten are written by Tory bloggers or people who have a key interest in the Party.

Here are the top ten:
