The Campaign for an English Parliament (CEP) is a pressure group which seeks the establishment of a devolved English parliament. The CEP is the main organisation associated with an English Parliament. It was formed as a non-denominational lobbying group. It is a single-issue campaign, seeking to stand apart from English nationalist currents, and proclaiming its commitment to a civic, rather than ethnic, conception of the English nation.〔Kenny, M. (2014) ‘The Politics of English Nationhood’, Oxford University Press, pp.192-93.〕 ==Establishment== It was set up in 1998 by six founder-members: Harry Bottom, Terry Brown, Guy Green, Pearl Linsell, Tony Linsell and Cyning Meadowcroft.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.politics.co.uk/opinion-formers/Campaign-for-an-English-Parliament/cep-documents-$479240$3.htm )〕 This was in response to the Devolution acts of that year, which they believed would put the English at a serious political and constitutional disadvantage. They determined that the CEP would represent all of the people of England, whatever their ethnicity or how they chose to identify themselves, who were legitimately living in England and paying taxes to the UK government. The first meeting took place in London in June 1998 and members leafleted the three main political parties (Labour, Liberal Democrat and Conservative) at their conferences in the autumn of that year. The campaign was incorporated as a not-for-profit company in September 1998 and is not affiliated to any political party. The CEP have on their National Council members and ex-members of the Labour, Liberal Democrat, United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP), English Democrat and Conservative parties.
