You're the Socialist, Beskar is the Communist.

But seriously - asking "North East" England whether they want a regional assembly is pointless - dividing the UK by regions according to population has largely failed, nobody outside Westminster pays much attention - it's like in the 1970's when they tried to break the counties, within 20 years they had brought back "Ceremonial" Counties so that people could have their sense of local identity.

I would say that at least a decade of consultation and argument would be required before we could say how many regional assemblies the UK needed and what areas they should cover.
