[Anthony Painter] Why the Conservatives are more divided than Labour | Anthony Painter: France's Europe minister Pierre Lellouche is right to say that by leaving the centre-right EPP group, the Tories have “marginalised themselves”. Germany's Christian Democrat CDU party has also downgraded relations with the Conservatives.

[Andrew Norton] Andrew Norton » Blog Archive » The Australian Democrats, RIP: In addition, if you look at what happened in Germany where the Greens became big enough to matter, what you find is that they got integrated into the mainstream, which means you ended up having environmental policies which the majority of the population seem happy with, and not all the crazy stuff that the Greens would think of by themselves that are not to do with the environment.

[Guardian Unlimited: Comment is free] A turn for the worse | Comment is free | guardian.co.uk: We go on and on about "identity" politics for immigrants, but somehow don't even bother to look at the springs of identity for host populations.It remains to be seen whether the relatively relaxed attitudes of the old "imperial powers", with their qualified commitments to inclusiveness, will not eventually harden up even frighteningly in the face of internal communities who reject their values and systems, and whether they will not start "falling back" on the ethnic nationalist visions of identity (perhaps this has already begun) that are simply "natural" to other European nations. But to expect a similar partly positive and apologetic response to multiculturalism from most European states is completely wacky and defies history.
