"The Nineteenth century saw a great Springtime of Nations as the revolutions of 1848 saw new countries created the length and breadth of Europe. In our world today we are now seeing our own Spring Awakening with people and cultures that have long been dormant and subdued asserting their right to exist, their right to dream." Adam Price MP

I saw Jack Straw being interviewed on TV about this. He seemed to exaggerate the whole announcement. Sadly, he was not questioned on the rationale behind Brown's push for constitutional reform: namely, saving the Union.
The Brown angle is that the "reforms" are about restoring trust in politics -- which was lost during the time he was writing the checques for illegal wars and the creeping police state.
