Article about a UK journalist and minor politician who does not pass WP:GNG due to a lack of significant coverage about him in reliable sources. He has written a lot of articles but not been the subject of many. The only reference in the article with significant coverage of him is written by himself, and the only piece with significant coverage of him that I fould on the internet is this piece in a blog written by an ex-colleague of his. There may well be a conflict of interest going by the username of the one edit account that created it. Atlantic306 (talk) 21:40, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
