I'll believe it when I see it

An unusual tale of two tales.

The Sunday Times reports that Gordon Brown is to break with centuries of tradition by surrendering historic powers delegated to previous prime ministers by the Queen.

Meanwhile in Scotland the Scotsman reports that Scottish MPs face ban from voting on English issues under Straw reforms.

Why was the latter not reported in the English press? Could it be that they want to convince Scots that any English discontent will be sorted whilst trying to delude English readers via the Sunday Times that Gordon will not lord it over them like a Viceroy?
