Jack Straw has called on English MPs to show “self restraint” over the unfair, racist Barnett Formula which gives Scotland more public spending than England with the English taxpayer footing the bill.
The Labour back benches are starting to get more vocal about the fact that their constituents in England can’t have life saving cancer drugs or drugs that will save their eyesight from the most common form of blindess but in Scotland they are available free of charge on the NHS thanks to the £11.3bn subsidy paid by the English taxpayer.
The Demon Headmaster also launched a predictable scathing attack on the Tories’ English Vote on English Matters proposal that would ban MPs not elected in England from interfering in English-only matters that are devolved in their own constituencies.
By calling for self-restraint Straw is acknowledging there is a problem and, more importantly, he is acknowledging that MPs need to do something about it but for the good of the union and to keep Liebour in power they must suffer the discrimination against their constituents and be prepared to lose the next election as a result.
Fucker! I’m now waiting for him to call on Scottish MP’s to show “self restraint” over the voting on English-only matters. What a lunatic am I. lol
[…] Earlier in the week Jack Straw told English MPs to show restraint on the English question in an unintended admission that English MPs are getting considerable flack from their constituents on the subject. […]
