Bill is an unknown quantity at this point
The regional assembly idea is just a diversion, an attempt to shift the accountability for some †œdifficultà¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Ãâ €šÂ topics away from central government.

The people elected to these bodies would have no real power and we would have to pay their salaries.

If we get them, or not, it wonââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t make any difference.

This government, like the one before it has now been in power too long. They have forgotten that they serve the people of the country. Tony Blair thinks it is the other way around, time he went.

It is not like supporting a football team, once they stop doing what we want, fail do what they promised, boot them out at the next election. The same goes for the next administration, when they find themselves out of a job every 4 years or so they will soon start to do what they are supposed to do, that is, look after the interests of the people of this country. Makes little difference which party, just as long as the electorate calls the shots.

Soapbox mode off.
