The new politics of a UK of nations joined but not muzzled was in evidence yesterday when Nicola Sturgeon made a speech in Brussels setting out Scotland’s view. This is fundamentally different to Cameron’s message, in the principle that the government is Eurosceptic but willing to stay if the terms are right, whereas Scotland is pro-Europe, and has no plans to leave, but would like a few changes to make things better for everyone.

No guesses as to who will soon be the darling of the EU. Sturgeon also said that there should be a voting majority to leave in each of the UK nations separately, for an exit to take place. This will have come as music to the ears of her audience who will know that such a requirement makes a UK exit all but impossible. This clever lady, a political strategist with few equals and none in these islands, knows that once the idea is put forward, it becomes impossible politically for England to use its majority to steamroller Scotland out of the EU.

Instead it would push Scotland out of the UK.

The Greek government appears to be standing firm, knowing that it has conceded all it can to EU negotiators; any more would risk riots and overthrow from an angry people to whom it promised an end to their vassal status as a busted nation, gripped in servitude by never ending austerity. There are signs that Germany may be just about to blink. It has got the message that not to do so makes a Greek default certain. The heads of both the ECB and the IMF have rushed to Berlin for talks. At the centre of it all sits the unyielding but pragmatic leader of Europe, Angela Merkel. She believes in the diplomacy of small steps, so the Greeks can expect nothing major in the concession department. But there may be something. Will it be enough?

An idea to stimulate economic growth without further government borrowing. Written in plain English and very easy to follow, this is the only really fresh approach out there to the intractable problems of the UK economy, and it is just beginning to be noticed in important places.

Every now and again the British Isles produces a politician whose character marks them out as a voice to be heard because of their wisdom, rather than their office. Charles Kennedy was such a person, one whose view was sought and always counted. His sudden death has shocked the whole country; those in politics and the media feel the loss acutely. A multitude across the political spectrum valued his company and thought of him as a friend. To them all and especially to his family this Blog offers its heartfelt sympathy.
