Surprise Demise 65 Posted July 4 3 minutes ago, ladyfiona said: My parents go to Orkney and Shetland basically yearly. They are raging Lib Dems over there and they feel more Scandinavian than Scottish. Caithness is much the same (just look at our flag - we're basically cosplaying a Scandinavian colony!) and despite the disaffection for the SNP I struggle to see how it would be possible to manifest the >15% swing (if I've done my maths right) that would be necessary to have Reform second in the seat. If I'm wrong and they do second I'll eat my hat - in a Paddy Ashdown way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Benefits of Alexander being a former middle of the road MP and Buckland being one of the more sensible Tories. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My dad has been working at a poll station all day, got home at 11pm and is currently having a nap. He set an alarm to wake up around 1am or 2am etc. I'm probably going to go to bed at 2am because i've got to get up for work at 7.30am. Though the birds making a noise will wake me up at 5am and i'll check updates on the BBC News app. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Old Crem 3,417 Posted July 4 ‘Labour sources have told the BBC they think they have snatched four of the six Glasgow seats from the SNP with two constituencies, Glasgow North and Glasgow South too close to call.’ ‘A walk around the Glasgow Emirates Arena indicates it is a close run between SNP and Labour which used to dominate the city before 2015. Labour volunteers say they have been surprised by the number of votes for Reform showing in Glasgow north while Conservatives are dismissing exit polls suggestions that the party might double its six seats in Scotland, saying it didn’t even target some of them.’ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
