"UK" Foreign Policy not Worth Reporting Any More?

I noted tonight that the Radio 4 evening news noted Baroness Ashton's comments on the situation. Note not our own UK foreign secretary William Hague, but the EU's foreign policy representative was quoted.

Its very clever, this takeover by the EU: its very subtle and gradual. But nonetheless its there: our own  foreign secretary its worth being quoted by our own national news service.

I expect to hear more of Cathy Ashton in preference to William Hague from now on.

Both the President and High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy are not the mere ceremonial positions we were supposed to get then.
