The Spectator

The Spectator is a British conservative political magazine, established 1828, published weekly. It claims to be the oldest continually published magazine in the English language. Editorship of The Spectator is traditionally a launchpad for high flyers in the British Conservative Party with past holders being Iain Macleod and Nigel Lawson. The current editor is Boris Johnson, and it is owned by the Barclay brothers, who also own The Daily Telegraph. The publisher is the American Kimberly Quinn. Following the revelations of her affairs and Boris Johnson's comments about people from Liverpool the owners have installed Andrew Neil as Chief Executive but with no formal editorial role. Like The Daily Telegraph, The Spectator is Atlanticist in outlook, favouring close ties with the United States rather than with the European Union, and is strongly supportive of Israel.
