We campaign for an English Parliament, meaning a parliament for the people of England, for whom England is their chosen or inherited home.

@educationgovuk You forgot to #SayEngland

@ENGLISHFUTURES @bphillipsonMP She only mentioned the word 'England' in her Labour conference speech was because it's in the name 'Skills England'.

@ENGLISHFUTURES Typical from @bphillipsonMP. The narrative and vision is British while the problems and policy levers are English.

[DR SIMON LEE @ENGLISHFUTURES]

All these policies and examples apply to #England alone,so why the 'Britain' narrative? Because for British nationalism, one of its definitive elements is the replacement of '#England' by 'Britain'. England must not have its own national political identity.https://t.co/MX16n1DFlf

@WRCharlie437766 @RobinTilbrook No, we're a democracy, you're allowed to feel British rather than English.

By the same token, the English are allowed to reject a PM (and de facto first minister of England) that has no feeling for England.

@ConHome @LukeGrahamUK Due to asymmetric devolution, the Union is even more of an Anglo-centric construct than it once was, with the PM being the UK PM and de facto first minister of England. Similarly, the UK Parliament also double-jobs as England's parliament.

It doesn't work.

@FormerClrDalton @NickCohen4 This sort of tweet is why you're a former councillor. Yes, I googled you.

@FormerClrDalton @NickCohen4 What? What does religion have to do with this?

[James Hawes @jameshawes2]

I do say that, and present the hard evidence.

@edwest Simon De Montfort had his testicles chopped off and hung around his nose? I grew up in Kenilworth and we learned about De Montford at school. They never taught us that.

@spikedonline "The hopes of Celtic nationalists rest on framing a now probable Reform government as an English nationalist party, the Westminster state assuming its final, most reductive, and cartoonish form." - Aris Roussinos.

@Innealadair @MarkBarry67 He says Britishness was inspired by people who live in the Borders. I recently listened to @jameshawes2 on the Byline Times' podcast in which he says that British identity was an elite creation for the plantation of Ireland.

@NewStatesman This article flips between England and Britain as if the two words were synonyms.

@TheEconomist In football, England has a world-beating industry.

[Made In England @BuyEnglishMade]

It's been a long road.

Back in 2010, I had an idea: a marketplace where English producers could sell directly to the public.

I underestimated the scale.

So this year I started smaller, with what we do best - food and drink.
Nearly six months on, https://t.co/eWD8weWXHH is almost live.

The mission is simple. Promote the purchase of English-made products. Help English makers thrive. Support jobs, shorten supply chains, and build a place people instinctively think of when they want to buy something made here in England.

It's been exhausting at times. But I can finally feel excited about what comes next.

@lukeakehurst Why only in August? In Scotland, free bus travel is available to everyone aged 5 to 22.
