Its creator, Will Straw, the son of Alice Perkins and Jack Straw, edited the newspaper until December 2010.[3] Straw was succeeded by Shamik Das, who was succeeded in February 2013 by James Bloodworth, then in February 2016 by Niamh Ní Mhaoileoin. In June 2017, Josiah Mortimer took over as Editor.[4]

The site is part of a cohort of British left-wing blogs which attracted interest from the media in 2010 and 2011.[5][6][7][8]

In 2014 the charity Oxfam cancelled an event at the East London Mosque after Left Foot Forward made the charity aware of the profile of one of its headline speakers, Ibrahim Hewitt, who had written a book for GCSE students calling homosexuality a "great sin", and that gay people should be "severely punished" under Islamic law.[9][10]

In 2016, Left Foot Forward described itself as "progressive" and "in agreement with left of centre policies and politicians". It regarded as sister blogs ThinkProgress in the United States, and Chifley in Australia.[11]

In January 2019 Left Foot Forward joined the state-approved press regulator IMPRESS.[12]
