The ever-continuing decomposition of the United Kingdom’s constitution continues and continues. EVEL, the hilarious acronym for English Votes for English Laws, is the latest stinking emission from the compost heap of the Palace of Westminster.
Despite the danger that over-long exposure to the fumes is known to induce quasi-toxic hallucinations, reducing judgement to mumbling rubbish about the mother of parliaments, and flaunting all health and safety regulations, the editors of openDemocracyUK insist on dragging me back to report what EVEL means for readers. As if to prove the extreme mental dangers involved, the once lively and intelligent Ed Miliband is quoted as condemning EVEL as “not true to the great traditions of Conservatism and unionism”. Quiver and shake!
