Over at the Wardman Wire, we are holding an online symposium on devolution and most specifically the issue of an English Parliament.

So far:

• Dave Cole argues that it’s “a long way to Westminster” and the English devolution should be provided on a regional level – but he doesn’t deny that it is needed;
• Garbo claims that we don’t need an English Parliament, and can’t have one due to them complications; and
• Matt Wardman considers the way(s) in which we are governed and the the potential role of an English Parliament.

In my post, I’ve taken the debate in a slightly different direction, with a greater consideration of the democratic implications of devolution.
