It continues to astonish me how far the telegraph (and conservatism generally) has left people like Oborne behind. Really quite something to behold, and pretty deeply alarming.

Is there anyplace a conservative can find real news anymore?

Anywhere reputable.

For example, I read the guardian pretty much everyday, and various other papers, even though although culturally I am a proper grauniad-reader type, politically I am not - but by virtue of actually reading the articles text you can actually (believe it or not?) determine both the facts and the flavour separately.

Be careful. It takes conscious effort to read sceptically; whenever your attention slips you'll find yourself absorbing the views the writer wants you to.

Financial Times is pretty good, and definitely not liberal.

Yes, that's correct - by Max Hastings, who said of Johnson, "don't trust this man with your wife or your wallet".
