Following Ian Brown's political ramblings in a Guardian interview, we can now expect more pop politics nonsense, this time from Alex James, following the news that the Blur bassist has been given a regular column in The Spectator magazine. The magazine's Editor, Matthew D'Ancona, describes James as someone who: "writes of worlds with wit, charm and wonderful observation".
James already produces two 'columns', of sorts, with national newspapers, writing a column called 'The Great Escape' about his life in the country in The Independent every Wednesday and releasing vodcasts called 'The Cheese Diaries', where he runs through the cheese-making process in passionate detail, with The Guardian and iTunes.
Add to that the expected Blur reunion and Mr James should be pretty busy in the coming months.
