If you wish to count socialists, count 6 plus 41 Scottish Labour MPs which essentially hung your Parliament. Take them out and you have your right wing public school Tory Govt. No need to fall in bed with the Lib/Dem leader who was at public school with David. (The word 'fag' from English public school thing certainly comes to mind)

How many of the current cabinet went to public school?

You have said you feel "Scotland is chained to England", so shouldn't you feel angry with your fellow tribes people for not voting SNP and gaining full independence? I assume that's what you want. You should feel lucky in England there is no chance of a nationalist party even getting a seat in parliament let alone independence for England. So we certainly feel chained to you Scots and have to put up with a lot of your people's hatred for class and a capitalist system Scotland has benefited considerably from, yet a lot of you consistently moan about. A good example of a case of biting the hand that feeds you.

Did you pay any tuition fees for your degree? Your education towers above mine. I only went to a state school and had a year at college. As a class warrior and a socialist I am surprised you're getting haughty at your education. Is this because you want to feel intellectually superior to me? Why else would you bring it up?
