Nest and earth wire..,,

[Scott_D]

I'm fitting a nest at my house to try it out.

Does the nest heat link / hub need to be earthed? Can't find anything in the book

No it doesn't it's double insulated eg plastic

I have always wired the Earth in. But I have always had an Earth to wire in.

BS 7671 requires an earth at every point in wiring and at each accessory - reg 411.3.1.1

Even if it doesn't need it you should have an earth wire there and terminate it in the earth terminal.
