"A plan so cunning you could brush your teeth with it"

When faced with a UK-wide General Election, regionalist and minor parties are faced with a dilemma - do they attempt to keep skirmishes restricted to the "local" battlefield (eg the DUP's and SNP's "Policies for Northern Ireland/Scotland made in Northern Ireland/Scotland") or do they throw all caution and logic to the wind and develop UK-wide policies in the blissful awareness that they will never have to actually enact them? Plaid Cymru and the UKIP are fellow travellers along the latter route.

Plaid Cymru have already informed us how they will change the UK's pension system when they take over at No.10 whilst the UKIP have developed a whole range of, I think the kindest description is probably "novel", ideas to "restore Britishness".

This suggestion, in particuliar, caught my eye:

11.3 The UK Independence Party acknowledges that the West Lothian and English questions are very real and distinctive issues - Labour’s Scottish and Welsh voting blocs enable the Government to drive through legislation, funding and reforms applicable only to England. Huge anomalies have emerged post devolution such as 4 different NHSs and supposedly UK Departments with English-only remits. To provide a solution to these questions, UKIP would abolish a whole layer of national assembly politicians, in national assemblies- scrapping Scottish MSPs, Welsh Assembly Members (AMs) and in time Northern Ireland’s Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs), replacing them with elected Westminster MPs from those home nations, with a ‘dual mandate’.

11.4 For example, one week a month (plus committee days based around Westminster commitments) Scottish MPs would meet in the Scottish Parliament, the other 3 weeks fighting for Scottish interests in Westminster. The ‘full time’ Scottish Parliament only meets 8 days a month at present, 1½ days plenary a week, with ‘family friendly’ hours. Similar policies would be enacted in relation to Welsh MAs and Northern Irish MLAs (where special circumstances apply currently).

11.5 An English Parliament formed of English Westminster MPs would meet in the same week as the other 3 home nations. There would be an English First Minister and other Ministers, but all Westminster MPs, presiding over English-focused departments (many of which exist, de facto, now).

It's a solution.
It would certainly save a fair bit in MLA salaries and paper-clip expenses.
I'm sure also the N.Irish, in particuliar, would soon notice a dramatic improvement in governance ...but with a grand total of zero MPs in the next parliament, I think the UKIP are going to have their work cut out on this one.
