Today's YouTube commentary is of course about the new Scottish poll from More In Common - the first full-scale Scottish poll from any company since June. The seats projection from the poll is pretty extraordinary, showing the SNP on 61 seats - just four short of a single-party overall majority. However, if anyone is tempted to think that this means John Swinney's plans to make an independence referendum conditional on the SNP winning an overall majority may not be quite so misjudged after all, I'm afraid that's not the case, and I explain why in the video. I also give my thoughts on the SNP event this morning, which doubled down on the Swinney plan.
Very encouraging poll for the SNP. It's great this implies they would have three times as many seats as the next party.
ReplyDeleteWhat are Alba's plans? Are they standing a couple in constituencies and the rest on regional? Not hearing anything about them these days. Have they sprung up more candidate numbers?
ReplyDelete"What are Alba's plans?"
DeleteAlba don't have plans, they barely even exist anymore. They won't be missed.
ALBA Failed Clique continues their repeatedly failed, unpopular strategy of propping up the traitors NuSNP instead of taking them on.

Why they poll so abysmally.
Ach, there's always the ISP !
DeleteWhy would they surrender that right to something? Em er, if one was not interested in something they would be happy to surrender the right, then nothing is lost if it ain’t achieved.
ReplyDeleteSwinney continues with his plan to ignore/reject the votes cast for parties supporting Independence other than his own. It’s almost as though he doesn’t want the mandate to push hard for Independence. Surely not?
ReplyDeleteDeffo. It's an evil conspiracy and everything is terrible. In fact, we're doomed.
DeleteSwinney wants people to vote SNP.

ReplyDeleteUK wide result: RefUK lead 13%, down 3% on previous week.
Scottish sub-sample (113)
Con 10%, Lab 13%, LibDem 11%, RefUK 19%, Green 12%, SNP 31%.
Another improbably high result for the Scottish Greens.
ALBA 😂😂😂😂 Finished as a credible political party. Maybe turn up at the Fringe next year as a comedy act
