Job Details

The Backbencher www.thebackbencher.co.uk is seeking new voluntary contributors for our politics, economic and cultural sections. We are a conservative leaning political website which was founded in 2012 with the aim of encouraging and promoting original political writing. Several of our former writers have gone on to work in national media organisations or think tanks. Whilst our editorial position is conservative we’re very keen to hear from innovative writers, including new writers, from across the political spectrum.
