Andy Burnham MP has just appeared on Channel 4 News claiming that he wants to see "the North" have devolution.
He is someone who has often talked about his Irish background (http://andyburnhammp.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/commemorating-first-world-war.html ).
Of course, as someone from a migrant background living in England he is entitled to his view.
But it would be more convincing if Labour produced some authentically English people to speak on the issue.
Otherwise it will just be seen as divide and rule.
