Gordon Brown

What a hypocritical wanker. Trying to criticise the Tories calling for English votes on English issues as threatening the union. Laughable. The only reason we need new laws are because of the devolution Brown and labour introduced. So special treatment of the Scots is ok, but equality for the English is a slipary slope. Cock.
I guess it's because labour has lots of Scottish MPs and they'd be screwed if they couldn't vote on English issues. Despite the laws they vote on not affecting their constituencies. It's a travesty of democracy no other country would stand for. I know it may not seem a big thing right now, but the more powers Scotland, Wales and N. Ireland get, the more England will suffer. Labour will use its Scottish MPs to force through unpopular bills on England, the MPs won't have to worry about unpopularity in their constituencies. Either we have to stop Scottish MPs voting on issues not affecting their constituencies or establish an English parliament to make things fair and equal.
This is typical political English bashing. Some misconception of us as an evil oppressive empire who were unfairly ruling over Scotland seems to be out there. The Act of Union 300 years ago was a voluntary agreement between two countries. England never ruled Scotland there was a British Parliament. Except now Scotland is in effect ruling over part of us. I wish English people were less complacent about their position in the world. Yes there are more of us than there are Scots, so! I guess this is just another form of majority bashing identity politics. Find yourself a special interest group, the normal are doomed. I agree that there must be safeguards in a democracy against majority mob rule, its called the law. But the current obsession with minority rights is just antidemocratic. You have more chance of being given a say if you are in a minority, maybe not through representation directly as in winning elections, but through single issue pressure groups.
Anyway, I'm getting off the point. Just remember your democracy is alreasy threatened. It's not racist to be English don't be ashamed, the Scots want their say in their country, stand up and fight for yours.
