Absolutely superb effort by all those who voted for this, many of whom are now dead.

Westminster will never do right by Scotland. Jobs would move north and they will loose votes in England if they did.
To stay in power Westminster parties have never needed Scottish support.

So he’s going for an SNP majority? Is that correct ?

Wullie @wullieforindy.bsky.social · 13h

An interesting statement, coming from an SNP delegate, 1 which I concur with.
Starmer has stated he would only ever consider a 1 party majority, all my hopes but we,re climbing a really steep hill with that one

My apologies, I misunderstood your post.

I appreciate people,s loyalty in doing a 1 & 2 vote and respect that, I’m only going to do 1 & 2 if we,re down substantially in the polls, different story if we,re up and forecast to win, 1 & 2 imo will gift the union list seats

Wullie @wullieforindy.bsky.social · 14h

That’s climbing a mountain
If you’re working with the D,hont system imo.
A good win for the snp in 2021 only got us just 2 list seats, and it opened the door to over 40 Union list seats

We must look for another alternative, the snp can go to the UN, I wish they wouldn’t dismiss ideas like this

2026 is not 2011. Not only is the cast different, but instead of a PM who expected victory in a referendum, we have one who constantly says there will not be another. Time to ditch the begging bowl.
