I agree with Wynonie Harris on this - Scots MPs shouldn't be able to vote on purely English matters. Lots of Scots will vote on this week's Education Bill, yet it doesn't affect them or their constituents at all. Some people say we would end up with two-tier MPs, but I think that we already effectively have that in that I can't vote on Scottish education matters but Scots can vote on English education.
