Scotland’s unemployment is falling 📉 while the UK rate rises under Labour 📈 — a clear sign of the difference the SNP is making and that Labour at Westminster isn’t working.

Should be said that if the SNP are close to their "floor", this shouldn't be a surprise. I imagine it may have been much softer in 2021, and then we saw that vote decline. I'd be more concerned if I were Labour, given their support is the softest of all the competitive parties.

The overall mean likelihood of considering voting for each party results in similar rankings to the net scores, but means among the 'likely to consider' and 'unlikely to consider' groups are interesting.
SNP support doesn't look particularly soft, and Reform are (predictably) the most polarising.

The saddest, most depressing aspect of the Labour apologists who still plague BlueSky is that many were ardent and vocal Remainers up until the day Labour took power, at which point they switched instantly to "Brexit is Brexit and there's nothing to be done" without even drawing breath in between.

Look, for fuck’s sake, humans have been migrating continuously for our entire existence.
Every single human in the world is the product of migration.
It’s what humans do. There is nothing *more* human.
That’s never going to change.
Just grow up, get the fuck over it and plan accordingly.

Scotland's iconic native red squirrels are vital for our nature and climate restoration. But until recent conservation efforts they were in steep decline.
