Rejected petition Create English Parliament

More details

At the current moment Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have large amounts of devolved power,which means that all MPs at Westminster cannot vote on laws that apply to these particular nations however the MP's that represent these constituent countries can vote on laws that apply to England only whilst MPs that represent constituencies within England cannot vote on issues that apply to Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland,this is unfair and I and the vast majority of English and UK residents want to prevent this therefore I propose a devolved English Parliament be created to deal with bills that apply to England only
