Scunnered Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Be interesting to see how the snp's vote is holding up after the fee months of relentless MSM scrutiny,,,, A dramatic increase no doubt. I've seen a few reactionary loonies say they're switching their vote to Green, or their list vote to something else but these are the same people who fawn over Sheridan. I've no idea of authenticity, but there was a claim going about a wee while back that SNP's high polling is despite only 28% thinking they're doing a good job in government... Believable due to the state of the alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm neither a reactionary loonie or someone who fawns over Sheridan but the SNP have lost my 2nd vote next year and, depending on the options in my constituency, will possibly lose the 1st also.

Oh I know you're not . Will be interesting to see how Kenny Gibson get's on in my constituency given he's failed on the pledges he campaigned with in the last campaign. My prediction is an increased majority. Here's a quote below on the SNP from a fellow constituent who also happens to post on here: "They might be as corrupt as the rest, but they pay the mortgage."

thplinth Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 @DrPaulMiddleton: #Holyrood seat prediction on TNS poll (SNP would probably win all const seats) SNP 75 (+6) LAB 24 (-13) CON 16 (+1) GRN 10 (+8) LD 4 (-1) Saddened to see the Lib Dems with as many as 4 MSPs. Huge majority for pro Yes parties though, if this holds up, and if anyone still believes polls after the General Election! Where is the Corbyn bounce?

DonnyTJS Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Where is the Corbyn bounce? Er ... check the date. Edit to add that I think there have been polls since that indicate no bounce to speak of in Scotland - from dodgy memory.

the_burger Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Can't see many switching back to labour because dugdale and co are vacuous at best. The Tories are surely toxic as ever - look how their vote share plummeted in the oldham by election. Carmichael has put paid to the lib dems. My guess is that most of the movement will be between snp and others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt I'd give Labour my constituency vote, but they will be getting my list vote as a good Campaign for Socialism comrade is on the list... I had planned to draw a penis over my constituency vote but fear it would be taken as an endorsement of Gibson due to intentions being clear.

TartanJon Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I've not hid the fact I stay in a posh area where all the candidates are practically Tories so I'm moving in with Scunnered as his common-in-law wife and voting for a socialist "I got called an anarchist but that's for the middle class trainspotters , I don't want my dog on a string,that's going to hurt the fekkin thing" Sleaford Mods -Tiswas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suddenly the vehement, bilious hatred of Patricia starts to make sense.... I can hardly believe that.

Auld_Reekie Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Im SNP in Constituency and Green on list. Unless the Forth Road Bridge actually falls into the Forth, it's very difficult to see that changing. And even then, it's highly likely I still wouldn't vote for the Unionist parties. In electoral terms, the gap between SNP/Green and Labour/Tory/LibDem is absolutely f***ing astronomical. Wouldn't go anywhere near the latter three.

I think they have sorted out their online game so now comments columns are flooded with anti-snp anti-indy rants. That said it's probably just 2 guys in a Labour party office somewhere with 200 different log ins for every newspaper in the land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
