"If people in England want to have a referendum on Englishness they can ask their representatives. I think it is a good thing to have a developing sense of Englishness," he says. "An English parliament would be a good step."
And oh, look, here’s published, completely by coincidence today, the results of a “timely” opinion poll...
The YouGov survey, conducted for the SNP, shows that two thirds - 65 per cent - of Scots believe it is "generally unfair" that Scottish MPs in the House of Commons are allowed to vote on English-only issues.
Of course, it’s unfair, but it’s the logical result of NuLabour's meddling with the UK's political system in the late 1990s.
And with the spotlight being increasingly concentrated on this unfairness, Brown, the chief architect of the devolution disaster, will soon have to deal with the inequities of the WLQ, one way or the other.
