Brown 'backs more Holyrood power'
 |   |
The Scottish National Party has claimed that Gordon Brown is "caving in to pressure" to concede more powers to the Scottish Parliament.
It follows the prime minister's speech at the CBI dinner in Glasgow in which he indicated that he favoured enhanced financial powers for Holyrood.
Mr Brown said the Union was key to the economy but indicated the prospect of greater financial accountability.
Mr Brown's aides denied this was a concession to Nationalist pressure.
Speaking to the dinner on Thursday night, Mr Brown said there was a risk of waking up and finding the benefits of the Union had been thrown away.
