England, the sacrificial lamb

Once again it appears that England's interests are to be sacrificed on the altar of the Union.
The Scottish Government is demanding that the Scottish portion of the DEFRA budget be handed over to Scotland's control before any of the planned cuts are made, thereby causing the cuts to fall even more heavily on England.
This demand follows the recent assurances from the Conservative Party that they will ‘respect’ the budget passed by the Scottish Government, an offer that has now also been extended to Wales. In other words, as an editorial in The Scotsman has pointed out, "England will see painful cuts over the next 12 months, while Scotland will escape relatively unscathed."[*]
For how much longer must England and her people be treated with this cavalier contempt? At what point will the British Government realise that it has to treat all its citizens equally if the Union is to survive? Or will it keep putting this off until it is too late?

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.
