Chris Mullin's bestselling 'A View From the Foothills' provided a riveting insider's account of life as a junior minister. Funny and self-deprecating, the new diaries run from his sacking by Blair as a minister after the 2005 elections to Election Day 2010 as he prepares to step down after 23 years as an MP.

Five states surround the Caspian Sea in the Caucasus: Iran, Azerbaijan, Russia, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan. These littoral states -- commonly known as the Caspian Basin countries -- have interested international policy and energy analysts in recent years, particularly since the demise of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s. This paper discusses potential conflicts which might arise in the Caspian Basin as the exploitation of oil and gas resources interrelates with existing geopolitical and domestic tensions. The focus is particularly on the emerging post-Soviet states of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan. Iran and Russia are considered in respect of their Caspian neighbours and wider international affairs.

At the beginning of the 21st century the United States attempted to reverse its longstanding policy towards the Middle East of working with undemocratic and often autocratic governments with "deficits" in the areas of elections, freedom of speech and human rights. George W. Bush reiterated the new approach in his 2006 State of the Union Address, when he linked the security of the US to reform in the region.

The term "energy security" is used widely to mean a number of different things, including the pressures on supply from rapidly industrialising China and India, liberalising markets to produce interdependence between countries, protecting pipelines from attack and diversifying from fossil fuels to renewables. The paper sets out developing energy policy in the UK and Europe, which is being driven by the need to secure energy supplies and deliver clean, affordable energy to combat climate change. It also considers the risks of dwindling reserves of oil, gas, and coal which, environmental considerations notwithstanding, will continue to be burnt for many years.

Westminster is normally a place for daily rituals of the Houses of Parliament to debate political issues. Tony Benn brings out a different view of the Westminter delightfully by taking his camera around for 12 months and by talking to people who work there, filming places that visitors and most MPs never see.
