Hokey-Cokey-Gate

Michael Matheson, my local MSP (and probably the Nat whose victory gave Salmond the plurality in the Parliament) has brought fresh ridicule on himself and his master, by condemning the children's song The Hokey Cokey as an anti-Catholic tract.
Salmond has been grubbing around for votes amongst Scotland's Catholics for a few years now, making the right noises around issues such as abortion and genetic research, hoping to gain traction amongst Scotland's traditionally Labour supporting Catholics.
Sectarianism is Scotland's greatest shame; the pathetic Matheson is adding fuel to the fire. Speaking of which, as bonfire night celebrates the burning of a Catholic terrorist Guy Fawkes, should Catholics take further offence and call for prosecutions of those who celebrate the 5th of November?
