5 My riposte to those who used against me the sinister French word ideologue has been to cite Socrates’s telling condemnation, uttered during the last tragic hours of his life (and recorded in the Phaedo ) of ‘misologue’, hater of reason.

6 Ironically, although the frustration of nationalist parties at Labour’s botched devolution project helped propel the Conservatives back into power, my efforts to interest Mrs Thatcher in the subject met a brick wall. She knew nothing about Scotland and was totally out of sympathy with Scottish national feeling. The Conservative party paid (and is still paying) a heavy price for this.
