As for the Scottish parliament and Welsh assemby, if the Scots and the Welsh want more layabouts battening onto them at public expense that's their business IMHO. I'm perfectly happy for them to organise their own affairs if only they would extend me the same courtesy. Personally I'd prefer one national parliament, but Labour have given the other nations the pornography of this childish nationalism (for their own electoral advantage) and if that's the way its going to be I want the same for England.
