That is not the point. Evel amounts to English devolution in all but name. The Scots needed a referendum to get Westminster to recognise Scottish desire for devolution but David Cameron seems to think that if he gets into power then he can just push the legislation through in the next session.

Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
