WE WILL BE FAIR TO ENGLAND WITH AN ENGLISH PARLIAMENT OF ENGLISH MP's AT WESTMINSTER................................
So, what does this mean? Under UKIP's current policy, are the people of England going to be offered a separate parliament and executive as have the Scots and Welsh?

I rather think not; this is what I am assuming! This is why I wrote: "This largely explains why you are content for England and the English to be treated differently and adversely."

Am I incorrect? If I am, I will happily withdraw my remarks! Moreover, I will investigate the prospects of becoming a UKIP member!

For the avoidance of doubt, I am relieved to have confirmation of your concerns about England. It seems that our differences here then are about the solutions.
