Some are more equal than others

Couldn’t agree more with Mr McCarron’s eloquence (‘Educated fool, treacherous curs’, SN, 26 March 12); belligerent fools of educated schools, to alter a lyric from the Smiths.

We’re all in together as we’re all equal, but some are more equal than others. Didn’t think it would be too long before they started showing their true [blue] colours and going back to the two tier society as this recent budget shows.

As for the Lib/Dems – history will show what a bad liaison they chose, anything to taste power. Call me old fashioned but what happened to principles, or is that a thing of the past?
