To See Ourselves

A weekly reflection on a topical issue. AL Kennedy explores the downsides of personal and national introspection.

AL Kennedy argues that the British have much to gain from - in the words of Robert Burns - "seeing ourselves as others see us".

Referring to last week's row over the appointment of the new European Commission President, she writes: "the EU's view of Britain might be that we're always yelling in a corner about chips!"

An entertaining exploration of the down-sides of personal and national introspection.
