PR edit
This article reads like public relations handout. Nothing controversial, amazing achievements. D'ancona might add it to his C.V. It never ceases to amaze me that in the days of the internet, Google and Wikipedia the best that can be gleaned about an editor of a major British newspaper, several years into his job, is a typical piece of PR written in a style which an agent might adopt to promote their charge. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.187.233.172 (talk) 07:55, 7 April 2009 (UTC) It's hagiographic.

Cheek edit
Matthew D'ancona has just published in the Guardian an article recommending a new Labour shadow frontbench composed of Blairites such as Yvette Cooper, Tom Watson and Keir Starmer. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/jul/08/labour-centre-ground-jeremy-corbyn
What a cheek for the chair of the "liberal conservative" think-tank and pressure group Bright Blue to presume to advise the Labour Party on whose should comprise their front bench! MrDemeanour (talk) 09:46, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
