The English deserve no less

Here's a tasty little quote from the journal Public Law, Summer 2001, pp. 268-280:

Let us not forget that in Scotland the Scottish Constitutional Convention had eight years to develop their proposals for the Scottish Parliament. Then those proposals were put to referendum. In England there needs to be an equally wide process of deliberation and consultation: the English deserve no less.

Professor Robert Hazell

Yes, that's Professor Robert Hazell of the Constitution Unit, the Government's chief wonk on matters constitutional, declaring that the English deserve no less than to be consulted on how we should be governed.
