Subject: RE: BS: Gordon Brown - First minister of England
Well, i'm English and would like to see the English given the choice as to what kind of government we want, instead of having it forced on us by a Scot. The Scot's were allowed to vote on whether they wanted a parliamnet or not, so why not this english? The answer is becuase of anlglophobia at the heart of this government.

In fact the best solution is an Independant England, maybe then we can have an English parlaiment and regional asemblies.

To John 'Giok' MacKenzie re:
"As a Scot I'm all in favour of an English Parliament, and regional assemblies, I know that even people in the north of England resent being ruled from a distance by a government that is based in the south east of England where many people don't know or care, anything at all about how people north of Watford live."

Quite, frankly it's none of your business what the english want. And as for you asserion about "many people don't know or care, anything at all about how people north of Watford live", perhaps as a scot you would care to enlighten me about my country. And quite frankly your logic could be applied to your own country:

I know that even people in the shetland isles resent being ruled from a distance by a government that is based in the central belt of scotland where many people don't know or care, anything at all about how people north of edinburgh live.
