Sir, – May I suggest that rumours of support from British prime minister David Cameron for the potential candidacy of the Taoiseach for the presidency of the EU commission should be seriously considered? The prestige and influence for Ireland of Enda Kenny attaining this position would be considerable; it would reinforce the current excellent relations between Ireland and Britain; and would ensure for Mr Kenny a career beyond 2016, which is nowhere near guaranteed at the moment. – Yours, etc,
