Baroness Ashton highlights EU democratic deficit

MY SOLE brush with publicly-funded office was the three terms I spent as external affairs vice president of City of London Polytechnic in 1983-84. But even experience that gives me one more democratic mandate than Baroness Ashton of Upholland has ever enjoyed. Several newspapers this morning make much of the fact that the EU’s new high representative for foreign and security policy has never...

The Taxpayers’ All-Lie-Ance unmasked

Surprise, bloody surprise! The Taxpayers’ Alliance have been at it again, peddling lies about the European Union - this time in a cinema ad. We’ve torn it to shreds over on Left Foot Forward , everything from their 13,333 per cent mark-up on the cost of membership and their fabrications about the costs of the Common Agricultural and Fisheries Policies to their implausible assertions on...

A European farce

I consider myself to be fairly pro-European. I have argued that the Lisbon Treaty did not require a confirmatory referendum, in fact calls for such plebiscites seem to be becoming far too common in what is still a representative democracy, being used to resolve party differences rather than give people a genuine choice. I can also see that there is a case for a permanent President of the European Council...

Von Rompuy-Ashton appointment: The EU has opted for the quiet life

After a turbulent 500 years it is understandable – I sometimes feel like putting my feet up too – but it is a mistake It's not true that last night's appointments at the EU's Brussels conclave are without historic precedence. When the Italian politician Signor Caligula was president of the European commission during one of the continent's more dynamic phases he appointed his horse to negotiate...

Not The Way To Do It

The appointments of Herman van Rompuy as the first President of the European Council and Baroness Ashton as the Council’s High Representative are the outcome of a blatantly flawed process. It is quite clear from that once the stitch up between the dominant blocs in European politics had been agreed whereby a candidate from the Right would get the President’s job and a candidate from the...

How to get ahead in politics

Well if you're Catherine Margaret Ashton, Baroness Ashton of Upholland the answers simple, never put yourself in a position where you might possibly face an election. That's right, the first High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy in the EU has never faced an election by the voting public* in her life. As the Times puts it , Lady Ashton, 52, a former leader of the Lords,...

Don't Tread on Our Web! U.K. Reportedly Seeking Absolute Net Control

For over a year, France has been considering plans to ban illegal downloaders from the Web. In the U.S., the FCC may actually begin regulating the Web by forcing providers to charge various fees. But neither of those disturbing developments compare at all to the rumors gathering momentum in England. Various outlets are reporting that the U.K. Secretary of State Peter Mandelson, referred to as the...

EU high representative: less senior, but more powerful

The main foreign policy job is titled high representative for foreign and security policy because, when negotiating the Lisbon treaty, Britain balked at calling it European foreign minister. The post, while formally the junior of the two, is potentially the more powerful. It comes with a large budget, a large machine, a more detailed job description, and 10 years of practice behind it. It is also...

Tony Blair out of EU race, but Britain provides new foreign minister

• Brown seals deal to give Ashton foreign portfolio • Blair's fears realised as Van Rompuy lands top job With its nondescript glass front, decorated with the red and white of the national flag, the Austrian mission to the European Union looks like just another unremarkable diplomatic building in Brussels. But this afternoon a key moment in British Labour history took place inside the building...
