[edit] Anti-English bias

Guess which country is massively under-represented in this talking shop? Well, it could only be England, because any of the others would kick up a fuss and storm out if they didn't get "fair" representation. So England, with over 75% of the combined population, ends up with a very fair maximum of 25 delegates out of 68! (Less any of the Members of the UK Parliament who aren't English - probably quite a few). LukeHoC 12:05, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Isn't it strange that the largest and most populous country in the UK is completely ignored when it comes to devolution? The UK government must be running scared of giving England any power at all over fears where that might lead to. Damn pathetic hypocrites! YourPTR! 03:12, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
