Lobey Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Glasgow Kelvin SNP 1 Alba 2 is what I'd like as I think Alba is worth a try, however last time I was SNP 1 and Green 2 and I do slightly worry that taking down the Green vote might actually benefit Labour, plus I have a lot of time for Patrick Harvie. Once I can find who Alba has on the list in Glasgow and maybe some inkling of the polling I'll be better placed to tell what works best.

killiefaetheferry Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Survation poll out, commissioned by The Courier. Alba on 3% and being spun as the end for Salmond 😂. Ffs they're only a week old and can expect to take seats by achieving 5%. Lots of normal people (as opposed to the likes of us) have not heard of this party yet, or have barely noticed the news and will be persuaded in the weeks to come. My Mrs not that keen on Salmond but open to a proper discussion now. It's these types of people - not hugely politically aware - who will be converted to Alba by friends and family, the same way they were converted to voting SNP/Yes.

killiefaetheferry Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'm predicting Alba take 12% on the list, where they are standing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapofGlencoe Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 3% was the absolute lowest acceptable nadir before it was abandon ship. Not a brilliant start for them but it's very, very early days. They had to register and they just have with their fingernails. The online 'community' backing them are really off putting overall. They have a few decent candidates like Guthrie, Torrance and Eadie and a few muppets like Arthur and Hanvey. Alba need to keep a positive message but many of their campaigners are consumed by negativity and pet hates that don't resonate with voters. Totally off message. It's a mesh of serious people and obsessive weirdos. For their sake you hope the serious people start to make themselves heard. I don't mind saying I'm flirting with an Alba vote but it's almost certainly SNP for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind saying I'm flirting with an Alba vote but it's almost certainly SNP for me. Clydebank and Milngavie will be a comfortable SNP hold. Given that the SNP will clean up the constituency seats in West Scotland, I’m torn whether to lend my list vote to the Greens to keep out the Yoons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 15 months as an MP, he's been an Independent, readmitted to the SNP, given a job as Vaccine spokesman, got sacked days later for contributing to a crowd funder to sue one of his colleagues and joined another party. Looks like muppetry to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I stayed in that constituency I might be tempted to vote for that Bonnie Prince Bob guy, just for the ha-has, then SNP on the list. That though increases the chances of the appalling Graham "gravy train" Campbell being elected, so I'd probably hold my nose and vote for Mr Jennifer Dempsie anyway. Compared to the having a Tory re-elected he's the lesser of two evils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
