I want to know whether Cameron will declare himself as First Minister Of England if he looses Britain, but wins England. He should.

If the English football team was run the way the country of England will be run by an Labour Party/SNP government, this is what you would get:

--------------------------

Dear English Football Association

As representatives of the Scottish Football Association we would like to inform you that we wish to change the way the English football team is managed to bring it more in line with the way a Labour / SNP government will run England. This will involve the following:

1. The Manager of the Scottish football team is allowed to be involved with the running of the English football team. However, the manager of the English team should have no say whatsoever in the running of the Scottish team.

2. A sizable proportion of any money the English FA raises from, say sponsorship or crowd takings, shall be given to the Scottish FA, regardless as to whether you need it or not. This does not apply the other way round. _This shall be known as the Barnett Formula.

3. You are not to call yourself England any longer. You will now be known as the British Regions. We, on the other hand, are still to be known as Scotland, "a proud and noble nation".

4. From this moment on, the English FA will cease to exist. It is to be replaced by the British Regions FA. However, the Scottish FA will be allowed to continue to work independently.

A failure to follow these rules will see you branded as arrogant, selfish, unfair._I'm sure you will find this to you satisfaction. After all, you seem to be happy with this state of affairs when you elected Ed Miliband. So why not your football team?

Yours sincerely

Ed Miliband and the Labour Party, and Nicola Sturgeon of the SNP.
