It’s time we had an English Parliament

 Logic says there needs to an English Parliament elected in the same way at the Scottish Parliament and Welsh Assembly, with the MPs also being members of regional ‘Grand Committees’ working alongside directly elected Regional Ministers. 

The UK Parliament would be replaced by a Federal Chamber overseeing non-domestic matters elected at the same time as the the three national parliaments based on their political make-up. 

Local Government would be given a modern Magna Carta and the geographical areas of Mayoral (and mini-mayoral) units would be determined by local populations and plebiscites.

It does not have to be complicated. You simply build on the existing models which have been in place and working for twenty years or more.
