Comments on The last days of the Tartan Raj by Andrew Neil
I agree wholeheartedly with Andrew Neil’s comments. The devolution settlement is an absolute disgrace.England has been left out in the cold. The West Lothian Question remains unanswered, and MPs representing English constituencies sit on their hands.
May I suggest a follow-up article featuring the Campaign for an English Parliament, whom you will find very vocal in their demand for an English Parliament? They can be found at www.thecep.org.uk

Three weeks ago I was sitting in a cell in a Pakistani military jail, after being rounded up with my film crew, while travelling from India to Afghanistan to make a documentary for British TV.
It was a pretty grim experience – very thin on luxury. There was lots of graffiti, mostly in blood and faeces, and a room stuffed with torture gear that would make a James Bond villain look under-equipped.
