 Campaign for an English Parliament   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The injustice being done to England by the UK state, which has a Scottish prime minister, a Scottish lord chancellor, a Scottish chancellor of the exchequer and a Welsh deputy prime minister, is immense.
Not establishing an English parliament along with the Scottish parliament was really their way of saying that Scotland is peripheral and what they get up to up there is of no real significance.
Until that moment the Westminster parliament, which is where the power is, remains what it's always been, England's parliament; and the Scottish parliament and the Welsh Assembly are intended as sops to keep the peripherals happy.
