EU Regions

Although the planned break-up of England by Brussels into 9 Regions is not usually discussed as an issue alongside that of an English Parliament, it is nevertheless very pertinent.
The announcement on April 1st about the S.E. of England Regional Assembly being dissolved was not the good news it should have been. It was replaced with the S.E.E Partnership Board. At the same time, the government replaced 44 District and County Councils with 7 'supersized' or Unitary Authorities. However the governments spins this announcement, it is nothing less than a thinly disguised move towards the previously planned 9 Regional Assemblies, which are as the EU wants England to be. If this continues, our hopes for an English Parliament will be ended.
