Setting up an English parliament would be a disaster

Now Jack Straw is at it!

"Setting up an English parliament would be a disaster as Wales and Scotland would demand independence," Justice Secretary Jack Straw was quoted as saying yesterday. Mr Straw, who has overall control of devolution policy at Westminster, said he was opposed to preventing Welsh and Scottish MPs voting on so-called English-only issues.

What he and Gordon Brown have not acknowledged is that it is the people of England who should decide for themselves whether or not they should have and English Parliament not the MPs.

That's two condemnations with no substantial reasoning in one week.

I think they are getting nervous and so they should!
