We were chatting about this in Politics today, its an interesting thing....
Seeing as theres a Scottish Government, Irish Assembley, and a Welsh Assembley, should England also have a govenment/assembley?
All 4 countries are part of the national government in Westminster, but Wales, Ireland, and Scotland also have their own seperate governments. So technically, you could say that they are represented twice, and that Wales, N. Ireland and Scotland have a say in what happens in England, as all decisions about England happen there, but the English representatives dont have a say in specifically Scottish, Irish and Welsh politics...
I'm playing Devils advocate sightly here....
So the question is, should England have a similar government/assembley to Wales, N. Ireland and Scotland?
