Dan Hodges is Glenda Jackson’s son, a former Labour Party member (I think he left after Corbyn got the leadership) and was definitely on the Blairite wing of the party.
I used to very much enjoy reading him back in the halcyon days of the Telegraph Blogs. He was challenging of the assumptions of the centre right that are often lazily and uncritically accepted on papers like the telegraph or the mail, while also being a very accessible voice of the left, which all too often is unbearably self righteous and shrill.
