scotlad Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 What would make another 19th out of interest? -40 seats? -30? Murphy returned? My sole interest in this election is Clark returned, SNP can take 58 for all I care. If clark loses I'll be disappointed, I'll be disgusted by the sheer stupidity of my fellow constituents, but it won't come close to the heartache of Indyref. Interesting question. Personally, I am hoping the SNP can secure a majority of Scottish seats. Anything more is a bonus. If they fail to add any seats and a Labour majority is returned at WM then that, for me, would be a result on a par with the referendum outcome. If they lost seats and a Tory majority was returned at WM then that would be infinitely, almost indescribably worse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillinger Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 That cuts to the core. Although I thought you were Ayrshire Central. So did I. Was still getting emails based on my old Irvine address. Better keep an eye on Amazon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scunnered Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Good Yes voting Killie men, you must be conflicted You've been listening to Patricia too much... Gibson: "SSP have instructed their members to lend their vote for thr SNP". SSP Member: "No we haven't. Gibson: "The Green Party have instructed their members to vote SNP".

Tommy Sheridan has Nobody knows anybody other than him from the SSP Thats valid in my book Fairly sure at the time the idea of non SNP members standing for the SNP was mooted there was a lot of discussion about all the pro smaller Yes parties rallying around 1 candidate So whilst not official it has been mentioned in the past Anyway she is right - they should be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scunnered Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Anyway she is right - they should be She's not right, she claimed these parties had instructed their members to vote SNP, that's false. And a very silly claim to make considering the SSP decided not to stand in North Ayrshire so as not to split the socialist vote for Katy. And anyway, this election has nothing to do with independence... It's not on the manifesto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scunnered Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I meant she should have said they should be not that they actually had Ah I see. That's a fair point, would probably tug at a few Nationalist heart strings. I can't speak for the Greens as a whole, but the 3 I know 2 of them intend to vote SNP and one of them for Katy. SSP are pretty unanimous in their support for Katy, there's a small group of 4-5 going to vote SNP, but 3 of them just left the SNP for SSP in January, old loyalties an aw'rat. It's worth mentioning that all the SSP members I know who stay in Ayrshire Central are voting SNP against Donohoe, I don't know any Greens from there, but you'd have to be a tit to vote Donohoe.

Orraloon Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I am sticking with my prediction of a Tory win (maybe needing the yellow Tories to help push them over the line). It looks like the Tories are winning the key marginals down south. And that's not opinion polls telling us that, it's real votes. https://archive.is/2uETy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
