Strongly agree
Reform the UK into a federal system
The Labour party has shown interest in reforming the UK into a federal system, with former leader Ed Miliband proposing a 'constitutional convention' to consider such a change. This would be in line with their support for devolution and giving more power to the individual nations within the UK.

Agree
No, only for legislation that has cross-border implications
The Labour party has shown some support for the idea of allowing Welsh, Scottish, and Northern Irish MPs to vote on English legislation only when it has cross-border implications. This position is more in line with their general support for devolution and the idea that each nation should have a say in matters that affect them.

Yes, as long as the Barnett formula is used to determine budgets

Yes, and abolish devolution so all MPs can vote on all issues
The Labour party has been a strong supporter of devolution and the establishment of the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Assembly, and Northern Ireland Assembly. Abolishing devolution would go against their historical stance on this issue, and it is unlikely that they would support such a move.
