    Lots of people go to public schools; some of those people also come from what one would call disadvantaged backgrounds. I'm not sure that we should let what appears to be a very personal, and very 19th century, distaste for rich people colour one's view of better (pick your definition of 'better') educational standards.

        Accents have nothing to do with education. Also taking like C3PO also is likely to get you a kicking/ridiculed in most parts of the UK and Scotland.

          How so? how many votes did the Americans submit in the House of commons?

          Of course the Scots as we all know are victims so they wouldn't take responsibility for anything involving leadership would they?

          If it is not the English toffs its the big bad Americans

            What a sad, dreary world you portray. Have you thought about doing something that will earn you a bit more money, and then moving somewhere nicer?

              We're better of without the likes of the feral ned scum that are obviously yours and Salmonds cohorts. I'd be careful though, they'll turn on you as soon as the Buckfast rivers run dry.

                Wow you do have a chip on your shoulder.

                You should try getting out more and talking to real people. There are plenty of independent school and public school teachers around who could explain the backgrounds of their kids.

                  Are you trying to pretend that Bush didn't instigate the war and have undue influence over Blair?

                  The Americans maybe don't have votes in the commons but they are powerful lobbyists and most of the UK MPs would sell their granny to get a well paid job with American companies.

                    Nope just people with accents, not looking down their nose at others, helping each other. Working/Middle class people with accents not an tiny elite tulipting on the little man. No wonder Westminster is scared, Scotland is about to give them a smacking.

                      So you are saying that Blair is a weak character? As Harold Wilson was able to keep the UK out of Vietnam.

                      That's a different matter.
