It all seems untenable as we have nothing to do with England thought-wise about what we want

It's a UK parliament though and different parts of the country vote for different parties. London has a majority of Labour MPs but is still subject to Conservative (and Lib Dem) rule.

Maybe a more interesting question is why Scottish MPs can vote on legislation that only affects England, and has no impact on Scotland because of devolution.
