  Recent BICEP2 results on CMB polarisation B-modes suggest a high value for
the inflation scale $V_0^{1/4} \simeq 10^{16}$ GeV, giving experimental
evidence for a physical scale in between the EW scale and the Planck mass. We
propose that this new high scale could be interpreted as evidence for a high
SUSY breaking scale $M_{ss}\simeq 10^{12}-10^{13}$ GeV. We show that such a
large value for $M_{ss}$ is consistent with a Higgs mass around 126 GeV. We
briefly discuss some possible particle physics implications of this assumption.
