English Constitutional Convention

This just in:

English Constitutional Convention - House of Commons; 20th October 2004.

So busy has it been in its headlong rush into the abolition of England as a political entity, and so eager to embrace unwanted regionalisation, that the UK Government actually forgot to consult the English nation on this major constitutional change.

A slip of the mind we're sure.

Not so the Campaign for an English Parliament. Today (20th October 2004) sees the launch of the English Constitutional Convention at the House of Commons.

It is an ambitious project but we very much hope that this will be the launch pad to a frank and open debate on the way that England should be governed.

Whether this convention is a success or failure may well depend on the involvement of the major political parties but we are now taking our argument into the halls of Westminster. Today's politicians should take note, because the Campaign for an English Parliament is the advance guard of a movement that will not go away. The longer our voices are ignored, the louder and more numerous our voices will become.

Campaign for an English Parliament Secretary, Scilla Cullen, will make an address to the Convention on behalf of the CEP.
