I'm not and I am not aware of a war so why a treaty? As for US alliance, perhaps you should ask your parents about the virtue of our close cultural link with the USA since your teachers failed to inform you properly. As for rich MPs, the more the better since they are generally people not relying on politics for an income and thus have less propensity to be jellybacked wimps submitting to bureaucratic or party apparatchik intimidation. As for private schooling, why don't you lefty types ever demand that public schools lift their education and discipline standards to those of private schools rather than ignore the obvious decline of public school standards?
