Resolved Question: Is England being governed by the Scottish mafia?
This is what wikipedia says on the Scottish mafia:
The Scottish mafia, tartan mafia or Scottish Raj, is a pejorative term used by English nationalists for a group of Scottish Labour Party politicians and broadcasters who they believe have undue influence over the governance of England. The term is occasionally used in the UK press and in parliamentary debates.
References to a Scottish mafia are based on the perceived over-representation of Scottish Members of Parliament (MPs) in senior government posts (four cabinet ministers out of twenty four) and on the constitutional arrangements which give them a say in English affairs whilst denying English MPs and Scottish Westminster MPs a say in some Scottish affairs. The latter is known as the West Lothian question.
The 'Scottish raj' is seen to be a distinctively Labour - and, to a lesser extent - Liberal Democrat phenomenon, as the Celtic fringe and North of England have always seen strong support for these parties, whereas Conservative support is traditionally based in the South East of England.
Four of the twenty-four Cabinet members in Britain are Scottish or were born in Scotland: English nationalists paint this as evidence of a Scottish conspiracy to dominate England.
