English question (West Lothian question) as a consequence of the UK’s „asymmetric” devolution

The article discusses one of the current political problems of the United Kingdom, expressed in the term: West Lothian question. It follows the introduction of „asymmetric” devolution arrangements in the UK and asks whether members of parliament from Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales sitting in the House of Commons should vote on matters relating to England, while MPs from England cannot vote on matters which were passed on to the Northern Ireland Assembly, the Scottish Parliament and the Welsh Parliament. The study explains the causes and essence of the „English question” and its political consequences. Moreover, the authors analyzed and assessed proposals to solve the analyzed dilemma and tried to indicate the most optimal solution.
