There’s Stuart Millson, softly spoken, effortlessly polite, erudite, with a cut-glass accent and a love of poetry and classical music. Amid the culture war, though, Dutt, Millson and Houghton walk a difficult tightrope. Nick Dutt feels slightly aggrieved at the position “Englishness” now takes in Britain.

Millson feels that it’s “the political class [in Scotland] rather than ordinary people who have this ‘down feeling’ about Britain”.
