Nonsense comments from Ed Miliband about a "Senate" (a Senate is a republican institution).
All this talk of devolving power away from Westminster rather overlooks the fact that Westminster IS the historic English parliament.
Assemblies that are not based in Westminster will not have popular cultural support - they will inevitably be seen as alien.
Remove the Scottish interlopers from the historic English parliament (perhaps on four days per week) and it will work perfectly as an English institution.
