It is England’s Forests not British Forests they want to sell

It is surely time that the media respected the distinction between British and English forests (and more generally between Britain and England). Otherwise we shall be led to think that it is engaging in British propaganda. It should be the media’s job to tell the general public when the United Kingdom government is intending to pass a bill that does not effect Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland not to assist it by referring to England only bills has being British bills, or bills for Britain. It should be made clear to the public that the forests the Coalition intend to sell off are England’s forests, and only England’s forests, they are not Britain’s forests or British forests which implies the forest sales would apply across the UnitedKingdom The conduct of the Coalition in respect to the sale of English assets in this case forests is little better than that of the previous Labour government, and together the British political parties simply ignore the manifest will of the people of England, even ignoring their own manifesto pledges. It was certainly not a part of any manifesto presented to the electors of Cannock Chase and South Staffordshire in 2010 that the Cannock Chase forest was going to be put up for sale. In my view the dishonourable behaviour of MPs Aiden Burley and Gavin Williamson in voting for the sale of their own areas greatest asset, and all of the other British Conservative MPs who voted for the Coalitions proposal, proves once and for all that British MPs have no loyalty to England or the English nation; preferring to put their own and their own parties interests before any other, and that applies to all three main political parties. True patriotic MPs should show their loyalty to England by breaking away and forming their own English political party.
