Letters to Shropshire newspapers.
Lord Falconer, the Lord Chancellor (who incidentally is the head of the Judiciary in England) made a speech on Friday 10th March about constitutional reform in which he extolled the virtues of Devolution to his native Scotland.
Evidently the greatest benefit from this has been that it has stopped the drift of votes from Labour to the Scottish National Party.
He denounced the very idea of an English Parliament because he reckoned it would lead to a break up of the United Kingdom – which, though he did not say it – would of course mean an end to the English taxpayers subsidising Scotland to the tune of £8 billion a year, and rising.
So, basically, he and his colleagues are happy to continue to practice apartheid against the people of England who they treat as third class citizen within what is supposedly the United Kingdom. This situation will of course only change if the people of England stand up for themselves, no one else will.
