No Fair!

It's really just not fair:

Gordon Brown is facing further embarrassment over his refusal to hold a referendum on the new European Union treaty with both Scotland and Northern Ireland looking to decide whether to hold their own votes.
Both devolved administrations are considering holding their own non-binding "consultative polls" on whether to accept the new European Union reform treaty, due to be finalised next month. (The Telegraph)

How come we in England don't get to have one of these as well? This shows that devolved government is more responsive to it's people. The people want a referendum. Why won't Brown just give us one? It is what we want.

The result is not what is important - what is important is that it is the British people who decide whether or not we will accept the new EU Constitution Reform Treaty. We live in a democracy, and this is one area where the people should have direct control over government action.
