Douglas Alexander, MP for Paisley & Renfrewshire South, Transport Minister for England, Secretary for State for North Britain, is introducing legislation to impose congestion charging on England.
However, the legislation won’t apply in North Britain where the people who voted for him live because transport is devolved to the North British Parliament.
Why should an MP elected in North Britain be minister for a department that only has jurisdiction over England?
