Hague says English devolution to be 'election issue'

http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-29306231

Won't anyone think of the children? Issues affecting the union being left to the three stooges...

There's a certain irony to 'globalization' when countries and states are increasingly asking and fighting for their version of independence.

Globalisation seems to be mostly about business expansion, and the need to legislate so that USA companies feel comfortable abroad.

Has Texas managed independence yet?

Just stop Scots MP's voting on English laws.
Job done.

Which is what Labour dont want - as they could end up with a majority in parliment when passing legislation that affects the whole of the UK but not when passing Legislation that affects only England. This would include parts of the budget so it would be a big issue for them

Which is why they fiddled it so Scots MP's could vote on English matter when they first devolved power to Scotland.
