Where's England's Dave

The leader of the Conservative Party, David Cameron, has outlined his draft manifesto for this year's general election and knowing that elections are won and lost in England, has sensibly opted to base his election campaign on the English health service.

You would, however, be forgiven for thinking that the manifesto announced today applied to the whole of the UK as David Cameron failed to mention the country he was talking about once.

David Cameron's draft manifesto mentions "Britain" and "the UK" once, "our country" twice and "this country" three times despite the fact he was talking about England. The word England doesn't appear once in his manifesto.

This can mean one of two things: either David Cameron is trying to deliberately mislead voters into thinking that if they voted for the Conservatives he would be in charge of the NHS in the whole of the UK or he simply doesn't understand what he would and wouldn't be able to do as British Prime Minister. Whichever if these is the case, it really doesn't say a lot about his ability to govern the country.

The Campaign for an English Parliament is urging all voters in England to give their vote to the candidate that will give equal rights to English people. David Cameron can't even bring himself to mention our country, how can he be trusted to do what is right for by the 50 million English people who have been discriminated against for over a decade by this anti-English British government?

We must not forget that it is the British that are denying England its political recognition, the British MPs we have sent to parliament to represent England, it is these who are to blame. Until we have our own English MPs not British MPs representing England nothing is going to change.
