thehibsareintheirbeds Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 This is a bit mental. When the exit poll came out, the numbers seemed a bit extreme but the swing to snp shows 58 seats are a real possibility. Uk politics has to change drastically after this.

Hasselhoff Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Hope Cameron's first piece of legislation is FFA for Scotland. Looking forward to see how Swinney makes up his budget for that one. As much as it will hurt Scotland, I want the same to happen. SNP need to find out the hard way that we get a good deal in the UK currently. Scotland can then get pulled back in to the UK once the SNP fails to deliver. Pleased with the exit poll and hope Tories can get a majority.

JamboGraham Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Amazing scenes tonight, reminds me of '97 when you see wave after wave of new MP looking quite stunned at what they have just achieved. Clearly the main swing is from Labour to SNP and, to a lesser extent Lib Dem to SNP. Conservative vote has pretty much held. Obviously a significant swing to the SNP was expected, but not on this level. To what level is this a protest vote, as opposed to a permanent change of allegiance? Is this Labour supporters saying they want a change in their Labour Party, or have they deserted forever? Going to be a very interesting year before the next Holyrood election...Can Scottish Labour rebuild from the ground up, who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
