WILL THE UK LEAVE THE EUROPEAN UNION? he European Union is a group of 28 nations (of whom 19 share the Euro as their currency), with an internal single labour market (any EU citizen can work in any EU country), internal freedom of movement, and a €120b ($190b) budget. he United Kingdom has always been a somewhat sceptical member of the EU, joining in 1973 and variously lirting with or threatening to leave since then. As part of its election promise, the governing Conservative party promised a nationwide-wide referendum on whether or not to leave at the end of next year. he UK and EU are negotiating a reform package, in the hopes of achieving a more harmonious relationship. In the meantime, as the EU grapples with Greek and other debt crises, a British exit, or “Brexit”, only adds more uncertainty to the mix.

WHAT’S THE PROCESS FOR APPOINTING A JUDGE TO THE U.S. SUPREME COURT? Widely reported over the last two weeks has been the death of Antonin Scalia, one of nine judges on the Supreme Court of the U.S., and one generally held to take conservative positions in his rulings. Nominating a replacement falls to U.S. President Barack Obama, who will be very conscious of what impact that choice will have on the U.S. Presidential race. Ater the U.S. President nominates a replacement, the Republican-dominated U.S. Senate must vote to conirm the choice. Normally a diicult task, the impending election is likely to make this a protracted and bitter process. Historically, the longest conirmation process lasted 125 days; with 260 days let in Obama’s term, waiting out the term might require bureaucratic theatrics only U.S. politics can provide. So far, Republican legislators claim they’ll stand irm and block any election before the nomination, and Democratic President Obama says he will nominate someone as soon as possible; but it’s too early in the game of political posturing to have a good idea of what will happen.
