Thats a 9D Villiers engine sitting in the frame so it definitely isn't a Royal Enfield Flying Flea.
I strongly suspect the first guess of a James ML is spot on and if you can tell us the frame and engine numbers we can probably tell you whether it is a wartime issue or an immediate postwar civilian model.
Jame made the ML (Military Lightweight) for the armed forces during WWII but kept making it for a few years after the war had finished. They are a popular restoration and a well liked bike.
Cheers,
