Following on from Lord Hattersley's endorsement, Times columnist Peter Riddell has joined the debate over an English Parliament with this article in today's paper.
Although he is hostile to the idea, I think this is only going to prove my point that the English Question has now crossed over into the mainstream of political debate.
As well as being an excellent writer, Riddell is one of the real high-priests of the Whitehall political establishment and if this isssue is on his radar, then we can be sure that it is firmly on the establishment's radar.
As someone said on another blog: "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

...or, in the words of another great Englishman:
The more you ignore me, the closer I get.
You're wasting your time.
