The past few weeks have seen an intensification of the banking crisis in the United States, with the near failure of Bear Sterns, although some commentators hopefully say that the worst has now passed. In the United Kingdom the gap between the Bank Rate and money market rates has re-opened and is described as indicative of a reluctance of banks to lend to each other. In this commentary we seek to explain the fundamental factors behind recent developments in UK lending markets. We begin by describing the recent experience of the financial services industry in the United Kingdom and putting the crisis, which has been described as the worst since the Second World War, into some sort of perspective.

It is a great privilege for me to give this lecture in honour of Lord Mackenzie-Stuart. I frequently had the privilege of appearing before him as counsel when he was judge at the European Court of Justice and also from 1984 to 1988 when he was President of the Court. It was on his departure from the Court in 1988 that I went to the Court as advocate general.Lord Mackenzie-Stuart, who has long been interested in the influence of European Community law on public law in the United Kingdom, had recently published a paper entitled “Recent developments in English administrative law—the impact of Europe?” In returning to that theme this evening I should like to update the story of developments in English administrative law where there may be a European impact. I will also venture, perhaps over-ambitiously, to look briefly at the new constitutional reforms, and to see if there may be a European impact there too.

IntroduzioneIn this article, we seek to re-consider the ‘presidentialization of politics’ argument in the light of recent developments in Germany and the United Kingdom. The experiences of coalition government suggest prima facie grounds for the erosion of the presidentialization process in each country. Germany has operated with a Grand Coalition in which domination of the executive by the Chancellor would seem less likely, whereas the long history of single-party governments in the United Kingdom gave way to a rare experiment in coalitional power sharing between 2010 and 2015, circumstances which should limit prime ministerial power. However, it is our contention that the presidentialization thesis retains its purchase in these two countries. German Chancellors and British prime ministers have been increasingly able to mobilize power resources, which allow them to govern more independently of their own parties and their coalition partners, and this seems to hold across a variety of political circumstances.
