English term or phrase: self-perceived destiny

Baby bonds are an eyecatching device to give the poor an asset stake in society. But this is the safest sort of radicalism. The first beneficiaries of the scheme will not come into possession of their modest endowments until Mr. Blair is eligible for pension. He, Gordon Brown, David Blunkett and Alistair Darling, with the Institute for Public Policy Research and the Fabian Society, all claim paternity over baby bonds. When one good notion has to be spread around four Cabinet Ministers and two think tanks, it tells us that New Labour is not bursting with bold and innovatory ideas.
This brings me to the last and most demanding test. The outstanding governments are those which alter the country’s destiny. The project to secure the exclusion of the Conservatives from power for a generation has withered as Blair’s enthusiasm for changing the Westminster voting system has shriveled. In terms of the private goals he set for his premiership, the most evident failure has been Europe. Towards Europe as a whole, and towards the single currency especially, public opinion is more aggressively hostile than ever.
The greatest wrangling between the Prime Minister and the Chancellor about the next manifesto is not over what it says about tax, but about the warmth of the phraseology towards the single currency. The fiercest struggle about that is within Mr. Blair himself. Will he hedge his self-perceived destiny with deadening qualifications or will he articulate the belief that his epochal role is to make Britain engaged partner in Europe?
