Party victory. With the state of British politics, that would appear to be a no-brainer. Scottish votes, no matter what Labour say, are of no real significance this time – all they would do is increase what looks like being a strong Labour majority.are trying to hold on to their seats against what could only be called a tsunami of “bad SNP” reporting from the media in all forms: press, TV, and social media.
All the arguments of “we offered to do this and do that but SNP didn’t want to play” won’t change the result, possibly a disastrous result for Scotland and the future of Scottish Government. Just take a minute and think of what a resurgent Labour may do toThis, my friends and fellow nationalists, is the time to vote with your country in mind. Be honest with yourself when you vote. A protest vote will not do, it will only damage Scotland.
The reason for this is that they are the only party with a realistic chance of getting MPs elected. With the greatest respect to Alba, the Scottish Green Party and any others: you are the future, while the SNP are the present.
Stan’s suggestion that the SNP ask Alba not to stand candidates in the General Election, and the SNP, in the next Holyrood election, publicly urge members to give their second vote to Alba, seems to me to be worth trying.It would help the independence cause to achieve a majority of seats in the General Election, and would also reduce significantly the number of Unionist “list” MSPs in the next Scottish Parliament.
