Campaign for an English Parliament is a Company Limited by Guarantee. That means it is a not-for-profit organization with no shareholders and limited liability (registered in England No. 3636739).

Did You Know...

That since devolution the people of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have had their own parliament and assemblies each dealing with their own domestic affairs such as policing, health, education, environment etc and representing solely the interests of their own people. England is the only country that is still run entirely by the UK Parliament made up of MP's from every country within the UK.

The people of England are at a disadvantage because unlike the other home countries we do not have anyone who represents us and us alone. We should have our own parliament to run along side the UK Parliament where we can make our own decisions on issues that affect the people of England. Until we have our own parliament we will continue to be discriminated against on a cultural, economic and political level. Read on...

  The English people have for many years borne the heaviest burden of "Britishness". While the people of the other home countries, through their parliaments, are actively encouraged to celebrate their national identity, culture and history we are not extended this same courtesy.

  An English Parliament would better enable the people of England to pursue policies which help preserve England's identity and improve our environment.

  Why should Scottish MP's have a say in issues which affect the people of England when English MP's have no say at all in how the Scots govern themselves. This also raises issues such as how they vote fairly on English matters when they have a prior obligation to protect the interests of their own country.

  This economic inequality means that the Scottish Parliament has been able to offer all Scottish students free tuition fees without having to raise additional taxes. This is to be denied to English citizens. They have also proposed that Scottish citizens in care homes receive free nursing and personal care.

  An English parliament dealing with issues such as health, education, police, planning, environment etc would lead to more effective and accountable decision making while at the same time bringing government closer to the people and giving everyone a greater sense of identity, purpose and direction.

For reasons unexplained England is not deemed worthy of a parliament and is to be split up into 9 regions thus ensuring that we are unable to speak with one voice and unable to serve the best interests of the people of England. Now is the time to make our voice heard; it is time for a change.
