I would like to see you write about interesting bits of law and politics, with a bias towards fact ("this case/decision/appointment/scandal was interesting because...") rather than opinion ("things should be like this because..."), and in a reasonable self-contained way so that someone with very little background knowledge can follow along.

I realise this is very difficult to do well, but I think you could make a good stab at it. Someone who is good at the kind of style of post I'm getting at is bradhicks.
