Scottish Independence (the sequel)

If Scotland does vote no they won't just remain part of the UK as before but will get further powers to largely self govern to an extent through devolution, including full Income Tax rate setting should the Tories win the next election.
This raises the question that those of us living in England should surely get the same equality. The Welsh and those in Northern Ireland have their own assemblies who it is believed hope to have powers increased inline with a Scotland that remains part of the UK. An English Assembly, governed for the benefit of the English is already becoming a popular ideal among English MP's in Parliament who are hoping to force this issue through after the Scotland issue is decided upon. There are several who are calling for a vote similar to that in Scotland, that would exclude anyone not resident in England.
I am not necessarily in favour of this but by trying to end the independence issue once and for all through agreeing to the SNP call, Cameron has done nothing but open a bigger can of worms. Makes you wonder what idiocy they teach privileged toffs at public schools. The only good thing is this issue could be the death knell for his leadership.

Trouble is I fear there are probably enough toffs out there who are stupid enough to say he is doing a good job mate!!
His disapproval rating must be on a par with Alan Pardew's!!
And Could Ed Miliband really win the next election for Labour?

he definatley wont win without scotland. i reckon if its a yes vote then should be 59 SNP mps for that year that cant vote on anything to do with england or wales

the only reason why the tories ever get it in the first place is because Labour Always fuck things up so Badly Thatcher got in because of Labour and the winter of Discontent

and in 2010 they got in cos Gordon Brown took us into the worst recession in history

The legendary comedy character you refer to was actually Private Frazer.

There was no full corporal in the Walmington-on-Sea Home Guard, only Lance Corporal Jones.

I see Goldenballs is getting involved now

If only the similarities ended here...
