Yes, I saw some of it a few months ago. I don't like the McConnell (the Labour leader who was First Minister at the time) - nor Salmond, of course.

I also don't like the way the rival Parliament in Edinburgh is designed - the semi-circle seating arrangement is like that of a continenal Parliament.

I prefer the way the seating is positioned in the House of Commons in London (or the House of Commons in Ottowa and the Federal Parliament in Canberra).
