The point I was making is that Westminster - elected reps and, perhaps more importantly - have a habit of forgetting that some powers have been devolved.

Both my mother and my wife were/are Scottish so I have at least a sympathy vote up there! There is a lovely apposite story of when the Scots raised teacher's salaries (or made universities free I forget which it was) and a functionary came up from London to remonstrate with the Scottish Dept. of Education.

"Which bit of devolution do you not understand?" came the reply.

I'll be interested to see exactly what reply I get from my M.P.
