Those of us who want to stay British (and English, in my case) won't be doing ourselves any favours if we can't bring England and Englishness to the party.

One of the most interesting things is that greater space for the expression of English identity is now both a anti-Union project to forge a post-British English identity, but also surely a pro-Union project to show that Englishness is not suppressed as one of the varieties of Britishness (even if nobody is quite clear - constitutionally or culturally - at this stage quite what it might be that the English want, beyond the chance to talk about it).
