On the House dies

Colin Espiner does a final blog:

So this is it. The last post, if you like, from On the House.

It's been more than three years and 378 posts since the Stuff editor asked me to write a blog on politics, and it's been a of a ride.

Even though Colin departed from the press gallery some months ago, still found his blog a must read. As a political blogger he stood out from his colleagues – both with frequency of posts, but also his willingness to stae what he really thinks, and engage with the commenters.

So the Stuff editor and I thought it was probably time to lay On the House to a well-deserved rest.

But the good news is that out of the ashes a new politics blog will rise – keep your eyes peeled for more on that soon. I certainly hope many of you will check it out and continue your arguments – sorry, discussions – in the new forum.

I'm hoping to start up another blog at some point myself, though I'm not sure on what yet. I'll let y'all know.

I look forward to the new Stuff politics blog, and also any future blog from Colin. I'd be interested to read a blog about life in a newsroom.
