England’s St. George’s Day gets Royal Approval

Members of the CEP fought long and hard to get the English to recognise and fly their flag in the public domain, this being the first step in its aim to get the English to recognise their separate UK identity and overall aim for England to claim the same separate political and constitutional recognition that the British have given to the other nations of the United Kingdom. Although our members have been, and are, constantly suffering physical as well as verbal racial abuse from British nationalists in some parts of England, encouraged by this British Government’s insistence that our country is referred to as Britain in the media, we have against all odds almost achieved our first objective and the English Cross of St.George can now be seen flying across most of our English counties. We thank everyone for their support.
Our second aim in getting people to identify with England and their English identity has been focused on the recognition of England’s patron saint, encouraging country wide celebrations on St. George’s Day 23rd April leading we hope to a National Holiday on par with Scotland’s St. Andrew’s Day. Many people and organisations have heard our call on this issue and have taken up our quest; the English voice is now beginning to rise in many Town Halls across England to the dismay of British Nationalists. One such voice has led to a 3 day Festival being planned this year for Lytham St. Annes which has been given royal approval, the Queen’s representative in the county Lord Shuttleworth has given his blessing to the event which begins on St. George’s Day, and is being supported by businessman David Haythornwaite, football legend Jimmy Armfield and former rugby star Bill Beaumont. This is a trend that we hope to see increasing across all of the counties of England, think of what it would mean if England our country gained its own parliament and control of its own affairs, of the golden economical and cultural opportunity that would present to the new parliament and a new English Tourist Board if they put together a programme to celebrate both England’s saint and England’s greatest poet and playwright William Shakespeare who was born on a St. George's Day and also died on a St. George’s Day. We could have 12 days of celebrations, beginning on St. George’s Day and culminating in a production of Shakespeare’s Twelth Night in every Town and city in the country.

CEP Calls for a Constitution for England

Wednesday, 28, Jan 2009 12:00
The CEP condemns the undemocratic way in which England is being treated by the UK Government. It calls for a constitution for the English nation.
The CEP has noted that no less than 13 ministers, whose responsibilities are for England only, are unelected. They are are: Lord Mandelson BERR, Mervyn Davies BERR, Lord Bach Ministry of Justice, Lord West Home Office, Lord Darzi Health, Baroness Vadera BERR, Lord Carter BERR & Media and Constitutional Affairs, Lord Hunt DEFRA, Lady Andrews DCLG, Lord Adonis Transport, Baroness Morgan Children Families and Skills, Baron Carter Culture Media and Sport, Lord Young Innovation Universities and Skills. Not one of them represents a single English voter. In contrast there are no unelected ministers in the Scotland, Wales or NI Offices.
As a result of the 1998 devolution legislation all Scottish, Welsh and NI MPs can vote on all matters affecting England, even matters which concern England only, while no English MPs can vote on matters reserved to the Scottish Parliament, the Welsh Assembly and the NI Assembly. The situation now is so undemocratic as far as England is concerned that it is governed in every detail by a government led by a Scottish Prime Minister who as a consequence of devolution has neither an electoral mandate nor any electoral responsibility for the legislation he makes which concerns England only, such as major government matters as health, education, business and business regulation, agriculture, fisheries, the environment and others.
The English nation has no political and constitutional recognition or existence, unlike Scotland, Wales and NI which all have both by reason of devolution which made them in different ways self-ruling and gave them their own parliament or assembly which is, as the devolution legislation stated, a declaration of the distinct nationhood of each of them. England does not have its own parliament. It is politically and constitutionally just a British territory.
The UK government is diluting, even in cases abolishing, the liberties and freedoms achieved by the English nation in the thousand years of its own existence before the 1707 Act of Union, such as those contained in the Magna Carta, Habeas Corpus, the jury system, the independence of the coroner, the English Common Law, the existence of representative democracy itself, and above all the independence of Parliament which the English Parliament defended so magnificently against Charles 1st. All are England’s achievements, and England’s only. Now England has no institution of its own to defend and restore its ancient liberties.
The situation is one immense injustice, it is racial discrimination at its worst, it amounts to a flagrant breach of every possible democratic principle. The CEP is demanding of the Government that it brings in a constitution for England as it has for the other nations of the United Kingdom.

England's Money is stolen by the British because England does not have its own Parliament

Regions lose £671m of EU funding

Allister Hayman, Regeneration & Renewal, 26 January 2009

England's poorest regions have lost up to £671 million in European funding to the Treasury after the UK Government refused an invitation by Brussels to extend the spending deadline for unused European regional aid programmes.
According to European Commission figures obtained by Regeneration & Renewal, England's poorest regions will miss out on up to EUR712 million (£671 million), after the Government refused an unprecedented EC offer to extend by six months the 31 December 2008 deadline for all countries to spend unused 2000-06 European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) cash.
The extension offer was made in December as part of a EUR200 billion fiscal stimulus package from the European Union that was designed to enable all regions receiving ERDF funds to spend the unused money on tackling the recession. The large UK underspend was in part due to the fall in the value of the pound against the Euro.
The UK Government accepted the extension for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, but declined to accept it for England. The unclaimed money will now be taken off the UK's future contribution to the EU, so will effectively go into the Treasury's coffers, rather than directly to the regions, a Treasury spokesman confirmed.
According to the EC figures, this means England's poorest regions will lose out on EUR285 million (£268 million) through the ERDF Objective 1 programme and EUR414 million (£389 million) through the ERDF Objective 2 scheme. In contrast, the potential windfall for Wales is EUR64 million (£60 million) across Objective 1 and 2, while Scotland stands to gain EUR57 million (£54 million) and Northern Ireland EUR27 million (£25 million).
Eight areas, including the Thames Gateway, Peterborough and Bristol, also stand to lose a total of EUR13 million (£12 million) from the ERDF Community Initiative Programme, the EC figures show.
A spokesman for Danuta Hubner, the European commissioner for regional policy, said that almost every other EU member state had accepted the invitation and that he was "surprised" the UK Government had declined the extension for England. "There is a lot of money left in the pot for the English regions and that's money they now won't be able to get," he said.
A Department for Communities and Local Government spokeswoman said the Government had decided against the extension because a cost-benefit analysis found it did not represent "best value for money".
She said: "It is not free money and would incur additional costs." She added that the EC requires its funding to be matched by private or public resources, and that this could not be found in such a "little time".
But Fiona Hall, a Liberal Democrat MEP for the North-East, which stands to lose EUR72 million (£67 million), said this was a "poor excuse".
She said: "(This) is a smokescreen for a money-grabbing Government trying to find funds from anywhere to help settle its financial problems. It's more likely that the Government has realised that any unclaimed money can be taken off the UK's contribution to the EU, going right back into Whitehall pockets."
The news comes as the UK Government faces paying a further £57 million in EC fines for "basic housekeeping" failures in its EC-funded programmes (see News, p3). The DCLG has already set aside cash for impending EC fines of up to £230 million (R&R, 22 August 2008, p1).
KEY POINTS
- Whitehall snatches £671m of English regional aid, but other UK nations enjoy Euro windfall
- Angry English regions demand the return of millions in European aid
- Government faces further fines for errors in its handling of European money

CEP: Anti-English racism in Scotland. Questions that need to be asked

On Saturday January 10th a 22 year old woman was assaulted in Aberdeen. All the evidence is that she was picked on for sounding English. [1] She has lived in Scotland for 18 years but says that she still pronounces some words with an English accent. She suffered two black eyes, a broken cheek bone and a severed nerve in her eye.
Only a few days later the Paisley Daily Express reported that an English family have been forced out of their home after repeated acts of vandalism and break-ins, culminating in their house being ransacked and human excrement being smeared on the walls. [2]
Commenting on the assault in Aberdeen, a spokesman for Grampian police said that "whilst this is clearly a despicable act, it is still unfortunately not uncommon for racially motivated incidents to take place".
When the three year old video of Prince Harry calling one of his friends "paki" was made public, Conservative Leader, David Cameron, was the first politician to condemn him for his racist remarks.[3] Yet despite several requests, neither David Cameron's press office nor the Conservative Party's press office have commented on these latest incidents of anti-English racism in Scotland. The question therefore arises: Is anti-English racism a lesser crime in the eyes of senior Conservative party members?
In 2002 David Blunkett, then Home Secretary, issued a strange call for the English to reclaim the flag from the racists, the racists in question being the British National Party. [4] However, when the Campaign for an English Parliament asked if he would be issuing a similar call to the Scots in light of the recent racist attacks, Mr Blunkett replied rather abruptly that we do not have his permission to quote him.
“Both Mr Cameron and Mr Blunket represent English constituencies. If we can't rely on two politicians representing English constituencies to speak out about racist attacks on English people in Scotland, what hope do we have of them speaking up on behalf of the English people on other issues?” Stuart Parr, CEP webmaster and member of its National Council and CEP organiser for Shropshire has asked in his web message to members.

Tell the Truth and get Banned from Parliament

An MP of the ruling Labour party throws down the ceremonial mace declaring his own party is a disgrace to democracy and the Deputy Speaker bans him from attending the commons for 5days for telling the truth. Quite right too, if it has taken him 10 years to realise this it should also have been recommended that he spends some time in another institution before being allowed back. What happened here occurred during a debate on the building of a third runway at England’s Heathrow Airport when John McDonnell the local area MP tried to demand a commons vote on the issue and was denied.
However, the most important issue here is the fact that this Airport extension is to an English Airport, and any decision on its extension or otherwise should have been decided by English MPs in an English Parliament. Whether this Airport extension will be economically viable and advantageous to the community, or whether it should not be built on environment grounds is concerning obviously, but having the decision decided by Prime Minister Gordon Brown, an MP elected by Scotland and self appointed First Minister of England whom we know full well couldn’t even force his own Scottish Nation that elected him to build a bike shed is indeed a disgrace to democracy. Having to hear this man direct attention away from England by referring to ‘this country’ instead of England when giving the reason for his decision makes your blood boil, and more so too when you realise that the British brainwashing on the MP John McDonnell has been so successful that even in his tirade he too couldn’t find it in himself to say England.
Perhaps this is a good time to remind the English people that the nasty Labour Party Eco Town, House Building, and Road Pricing schemes, criminal and civil Laws are all part and parcel of the things this Scottish elected self appointed Prime Minister is able to force onto us in England because we don’t have our own parliament, enjoying the fact he has given his own nation a parliament for their protection. Also on his agenda is a ‘Coroners & Justice Bill’ that brings in ID cards and a Communication Bill which will allow the government to seize and store every text message, e-mail, phone call and internet connection, which no doubt he will also declare applies to ‘this country’ or ‘Britain’ refusing to tell the people it will only apply to England.

Are you English or British by Ignorance

Many people have not yet realised that the situation the English Nation is in regarding its conflicting position within the EU and the United Kingdom is being caused by themselves. Are you one of these English people, are you letting the British with their psychology coerce you into accepting their British identity and deny your English one, not knowing that in doing so you are aiding and abetting their intent to destroy your nation. They are not trying to coerce the Scots, Welsh, or Irish into accepting their British identity, they have already proved that because they have given these countries their own separate political and cultural recognition with a parliament which recognises their nation’s separate identities. It is you, and only you, and your country England they wish to destroy, and they are able to do it only as long as they can deny you and your country its own separate political and cultural recognition and separate parliament.
It is England, the English and English Laws of democracy that is being destroyed by the British and the EU, laws that have been hard fought for and won by English people throughout the ages, and it is happening because the British will not give you the means of protection, an English Parliament, and that’s why they say they never will.
The main British weapon used against us has been a psychological plan based on institutionalised racism, a gradual and steadily ongoing influence in our institutions since we joined the EU that has been so successful that many of our people are denying their own identity, looking upon their own nation has being racist and not the British elite the actual perpetrators of the racism. To be successful they need to destroy all memories of English democracy and the English identity, and they have already made great strides in this direction by replacing many of our English Institutions with their British ones. Everyone knows a nation can only last as long has it can pass on its memories and History to future generations, the British government’s senior advisor on primary schools, Sir Jim Rose has said that the British should remove History from the school curriculum, thereby denying England’s children the right to these memories. There is also talk that the British want to abolish the ‘Act of Settlement, which will lead to the disestablishment of the Church of England, which is the last institution that recognises constitutionally any sort of status for England.
They can not stop the politically identified nations of Scotland, Wales, and Ireland from teaching their own nations Histories to their children, because these countries have control over their own educational and cultural policies and there is no talk of disestablishing the Church of Scotland.
