RESTLESS NATION - Iain Macwhirter asks if a Conservative victory in the general election would spell the end of the UK

Not the end of the affair - So New Labour's getting a kicking in the polls, as Brits embark on their traditional outbreak of mid-term disaffection. But talk of the government betraying its heartlands is just so much hot air. In reality, we've never had it so good

Macwhirter, Iain, (2000)

Money, power and Holyrood - Scotland's financial prowess may appear tarnished by its infamous 'money pit' - the empty and costly building site meant to house Holyrood. But in practice the affair has helped spur the new Parliament into taking firm control of its finances

Macwhirter, Iain, (2000)

New Labour, new taxes? - We may be moving away from the tax-phobia of the Tory years towards a climate that accepts better funding of the NHS. If so, we may be about to see a historic shift from a charity-shop health service
