Scots education secretary demoted. She brands decision "totally, like unfair yeh?"
Under-fire education secretary, Fiona Hyslop, has been demoted in a reshuffle of Scottish government ministers.
Ms Hyslop has come under sustained opposition attack on issues including falling teacher numbers, cutting class sizes and school buildings.
Culture Minister Michael Russell has been promoted to education secretary, while Ms Hyslop will take on his previous position.
First Minister Alex Salmond said education needed a "fresh look".

During the fraught demotion meeting, Ms Hyslop sighed heavily throughout, refused to make eye contact and insisted that on the days SNP education policy had been messed up,  she wasn't even there right, 'cos she was off with a note and everything?
