As an Englishman I’m unhappy we don’t have our own parliament and just get swept up into the UK government.Stupid idea to give Scotland and Wales their own Parliaments, without giving England the same option. Stupid idea from Tony Blair, who also cost a lot of British lives and limbs and mental health, in those imaginary weapons of mass distruction, and who has just been knighted. I am no fan of Boris, but a few parties in Downing Street seem like small fry in comparison. That said, those parties were an abomination and so insensitive.
We should have an assembly somewhere in the midlands or north that should have the same powers Holyrood does.
I think we’ve got the bad end of the stick in this union.

Dentists are oral surgeons, so doctors who specialize in that part of the body. In Leitch’s case, he is also an academic doctor, so I think he meets the job criteria.He is a dentist. Can you get a sick note from him? No. He is not a doctor.
Next time you’re at the dentists, be sure to let them know that they’re not really a proper doctor. ;-)

Not sure the two are connected. Nobody outside of England is stopping the country having an English parliament. There just doesn’t seem to be demand in England for one. Some people favour greater regional autonomy, some people want a separate English parliament, and some people want the current situation to continue. I think the English Democrats are the only party advocating the creation of an English parliament.As an Englishman I’m unhappy we don’t have our own parliament and just get swept up into the UK government.

That’s because they’re not a unionist party and the rest are. England has been swept up in the union flag and for the worst. Many I speak to want an English Parliament too and I think if England got an independence vote, we wouldn’t bottle it like the Scots.Not sure the two are connected.

But surely if there were such a groundswell of public opinion in England, that would have manifested itself in the policies advocated by the mainstream political parties.That’s because they’re not a unionist party and the rest are.

Both countries profited enormously from
the Union, but the world is a different place in the 21st Century. Not entirely convinced that independence for either would immeasurably improve the lot of those in Barrow or Barra, but the respective peoples should be allowed to decide for themselves.
I think many want it but as an issue way down the list.But surely if there were such a groundswell of public opinion in England, that would have manifested itself in the policies advocated by the mainstream political parties.

If the Union does dissolve, then there would be a de facto English parliament, but that would ignite debate over whether it should remain at a refurbished Westminster or be relocated elsewhere.I think many want it but as an issue way down the list.

Yes we would be down £11b. We give £79b in and we get £30b back. We will be fine and ee can grow our economy. How much will we be down yrar on year out of europe. Make that up in no time.Haha you think Scotland who have a net take, rather than give, from the UK’s coffers, leaving England will make England worse off?
Give us the vote, we’ll get rid of you in no time. Save us a headache from you moaning fuckers
