We have seen Prime Minister Gordon Brown and most member of his party promote Tony Blair as the first President of the European Union. Dare other members of the British Government put their names forward to support such a person who may in the near future be called to give account of his reasons for going to war? Dare they be associated with a person who could well be soon listed as a war criminal?...

By David Beeson There is a fresh new breeze blowing through politics today. David Cameron and the Tories are going to renew politics in this country and for that we should be deeply grateful to them. Cameron has shown himself to be keen to learn from the errors of the past and avoid making them himself. He saw, for instance, the euphoria that greeted Tony Blair’s election back in 1997. It actually...

EU Finally Puts On A Show That Is Worth Watching Stephen Glain The National 11/01/09 In case you missed it, the EU has done something completely out of character. It has become interesting. Consider the countervailing developments that shook the EU last month. In a referendum, Ireland conclusively endorsed the Lisbon Treaty, an administrative reform plan that supporters say will make the common market...

SNOPPER SAYS..... (Free subscription) | 11/05/2009
A RANT A DAY.... I was talking with one of my neighbours yesterday morning and he told me that he hadn`t bought a newspaper for years and years. The reason? Because they were always full of bad news. So too is the news on television and radio; it seems impossible to avoid it and the really depressing thing is that the more you listen, look and read, the worse the news seems to get. Almost to prove...

Lessons from the unedifying fight over top Brussels jobs IN THE end, Tony Blair’s great European adventure seems to have been a balancing act too far. As prime minister, Mr Blair built a career on political acrobatics. He was the Labour politician who left in place great chunks of Thatcherism. As prime minister, he swore he was a true European (the “most European of Englishmen”,...

David Cameron's disappointing remedy for future negotiations surrounding this country's place in Europe have brought the first sniffles of disapproval. Having set out my position on what the Conservatives should have done yesterday morning, it was a huge anti-climax to see Cameron promising only to consult the people before future power grabs from Brussels. The truth is that, leaving aside our domestic...

In all the noise and fuss of the past 48 hours, I don't think there has been much consultation of people outside Westminster. I very much value your views on what Conservative policy towards the EU ought to be. Perhaps you would be kind enough to take a few minutes to reply to the seven questions below. The answers will be compiled anonymously, and I'll give you the overall figures in a future email....

Let's see if we can tease out the logic of the latest New Labour backflip. The former foreign office minister Kim Howells suggests that the policy in Afghanistan is not working and it is time to consider withdrawing troops and putting the money saved as result into the UK Border Agency and greater surveillance and monitoring in Britain. Like so many in the Labour party, Howells's only response to...

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown admitted he is shy and must improve his presentation skills, but insisted he cannot make himself "sexy" in time for elections next year, in comments released Tuesday. He has very little money, has never taken drugs and will devote himself to charity work once he leaves politics -- in contrast to his predecessor Tony Blair, who has made fortunes on the...

Funny little comment from Cameron yesterday in the Commons debate on the European Council meeting. Trying to move the debate on to the topic of a European ‘President’, Cameron said that Brown hadn’t mentioned ‘Tony Blair’, being the subject ‘that seemed to be discussed wherever the leaders met’. But how would Cameron know? He’s not even met [...]
