DOES anyone think it fair to those of us who live in England (which is 87 per cent of the population of the United Kingdom) that MPs who represent Northern Irish, Scottish or Welsh constituencies where certain powers have been devolved to their assembly or parliament, vote on those very same devolved matters in the Westminster Parliament that can now only affect England?
Where has the well known British quality of fair play gone?
It appears that they think that although England's MPs cannot speak, debate or vote in their assembly or parliament they can still poke their noses into England's affairs.
Is this a case that all of the Westminster MPs are equal but some are more equal than England's MPs?
It is time for these interfering MPs to regain their sense of fair play I think.
