You've got just what you voted for - A conservative government. I'm sure Ruth Davidson will be along any minute to give you the pat on the head you so richly deserve. There's a lot more to this than tactical voting, but if you want to stick with that, then fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this has done is move a second referendu back, which long term I think is better for Yes as anything in the near future would have been lost anyway.

ayrmad Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Good to see Corbyn taking a leaf out of wee Ruth's book, he was elected yesterday and is ready to put his plan into action, don't think the Scottish media or Davidson will be able to put up much of an argument. Well done Jezza, get that austerity to f**k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 It's an unprecedented period in politics especially up here. SNP supporters are hugely disappointed with what is their 2nd best election showing ever. Tory fan boys are waving their wee winkies about despite may throwing away a majority unnecessarily and slab are celebrating despite obstructing their own guy from taking over no 10. Indyref2 is off the agenda currently.....but who is that really worse for? Seems likely that holding one early would have resulted in a no vote so surely that would have been a better scenario for the no campaign given how strongly weighted young people are to yes. Why wait til the core no vote has died out? It also means that the unionist parties have lost their only stick to beat snp with. If the only policies they could come up with were no Indyref2 then they now need to find some policies and sharpish because there's no doubt that a tory/dup coalition will fall at the first sign of trouble. The snp need to learn from Corbyn and be more radical with policies. They've tried to hard to stand in the middle and offend no one. Corbyn has shown that even in the face of appalling media bias that bold socially just policies can inspire voters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armand 2 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Theresa May's position is utterly untenable, she has to go. Quite surprised that the UKIP voters appear to have went to Labour. In addition to the seats that they lost, SNP held onto a number of others with vastly reduced majorities. I think that's reflective of the complacency that they've shown and the blatant disregard for 55% of the population who don't want independence. Barring a significant change of tact, I think the SNP bubble has burst. Clegg losing his seat was the gradual karmic reward for being a treacherous sell-out.

LongTimeLurker Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Just now, Sooky said: Half of the 6 pre-2015 SNP 'originals' lost their seats. They always got in on an anti-Tory tactical vote in areas that were relatively lukewarm during the devolution and independence referenda and pushing a pro-Remain indyref2 in NE fishing ports was not likely to help the SNP's electoral performance there.

ayrmad Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Lex must be absolutely gutted today after a YES vote in indyref2 increased markedly, at least we'll know what pain we're getting before we decide now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 6 hours ago, Henderson to deliver ..... said: It's looking like a bad night for the SNP, tbf they were probably due one. Lets not forget that they'll win this election as they've won every major ballot for the last 10 years. People need to put it in perspective. 2015 was a freak result. Always on the defensive this campaign, defending basically every seat in Scotland. Support for Independence still polls between 40 - 50 %. ^^^ Posted this last night before bed and stand by it this morning. Losing 19 seats, Salmond and Robertson is a bad result no question. A combination of Brexit, Corbyn, No IndyRef2 and tactical voting have hurt the SNP more than anyone predicted here. Reports of the demise of the Independence movement are greatly exaggerated though. If the Unionists had wanted to put the issue to bed, they should have allowed and then in all likelihood won IndyRef2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
