So Jack Straw and couple of Scotish MP`s think that the Tories proposal for English votes on English matters is” utterly disgraceful, anti-British, unpatriotic” and “would lead inexorably to the break up of the United Kingdom.”

One is tempted to wonder why it is that those same people do not see a problem with allowing Scottish Mps to vote on matters which do not relate to their own constituencies, that is also “utterly disgraceful, anti-British, unpatriotic” and “will lead inexorably to the break up of the United Kingdom”

Of course the EVoEM is an attempt to rectify the problem created by transferring powers away from Westminster to the Scotish parliament, if Jack Straw and co wish to prevent the break up of the UK perhaps they will consider taking back those powers so that all legislation passed in the UK parliament affects all of the people of the UK not just some of them.

Or they could set up an English Parliament.
