English Vote For English Laws: Labour Playing Deaf and Dumb

Ed Miliband, and the rest of Labour, are playing deaf and dumb to English Votes for English Laws, or as one man said on Twitter (@PaulGoodmanCH) today:

"Hear no EVEL, See no EVEL, Speak no EVEL"

Labour, meant to be the 'peoples' party once again ignoring the millions of voices wanting to be heard.

To be honest, this is nothing new, in fact it's a well known Labour trait. They did it when millions of people took to the streets over ten years ago about the invasion in Iraq, and they're doing it now with EVEL, and the EU.

For a party that tows the line "the peoples party", they really aren't too good at listening to "the people" when they actually want a say.

For example, if Gordon Brown had miraculously won the 2010 general election, would Scotland have been given a referendum? Doubt it, especially as they had 41 seats at stake.

They currently won't even entertain the idea of an In/Out referendum on the EU, and now they're blocking talks on bringing in EVEL, yet promised it to a country where there are plenty of Labour MP's.

In fact, they don't mind Welsh Vote for Welsh Laws, as once again they reign supreme, even in Northern Ireland they are too fussed about giving devolution, but England where the Tories (and now possibly UKIP) reign supreme? No chance.

They're putting party interests before country interests. Ignoring the voices of their own voters, for the voices of their paymasters.

But in doing this, they're forgetting the fundamental rules of the left; fairness, and equality.

To allow devolution for three of the four countries that make up the United Kingdom is noway near fair, nor is it equal.

But Labour and Ed don't care, they will sacrifice the morals on which the party was built, all for the sake of power.

Ed is currently far to busy in researching Eastenders to be worried about the English having equal rights as the rest of the UK!
