1. Author: Parboiled Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 09:53 Will stand as an independent at next Holyrood election. A non ass licker who speaks up for his constituents ..he’ll walk it Reply
2. Author: wee eck Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 10:21 That`ll keep the Unionists out. Reply
3. Author: Parboiled Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 11:15 Not if the Indy vote is split? Reply
4. Author: wee eck Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 12:01 I`m sure you said he`d walk it. Reply
5. Author: Tenruh Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 12:36 wee eck, Fri 20 Jun 12:01 I`m sure you said he`d walk it. Ha ha...good response Eck. If we vote SNP on the constituency and another Independence candidate on the list the we should win 70+ Independence seats....locking out the yoons. Post Edited (Fri 20 Jun 12:47) Reply
6. Author: Parboiled Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 13:04 Ah…I’m rethinking this. SNP will turn their attack dogs on Ewing, split the Indy vote, and a Yoon will nick it Reply
7. Author: wee eck Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 13:10 Well, that`s progress. I `ve always had the impression you didn`t think at all before posting. Reply
8. Author: Tenruh Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 13:14 wee eck, Fri 20 Jun 13:10 Well, that`s progress. I `ve always had the impression you didn`t think at all before posting. Keep it going, Eck two bullseyes 🎯 today already Reply
9. Author: jake89 Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 14:21 Does it matter? It`s a foregone conclusion that we`ll have Lib-Lab. The only thing that could potentially scupper it would be if Reform get too many seats. They won`t be able to form a government as no-one will partner with them, but it would potentially allow for an SNP minority. Reply

The only thing that could potentially scupper it would be if Reform get too many seats. They won`t be able to form a government as no-one will partner with them, but it would potentially allow for an SNP minority. So it`s a foregone conclusion that it will be a lib-dem pact or maybe that won`t happen as Reform might get some seats and then the SNP might get in on a minority.... I think the SNP will win most of the constituency seats, and hopefully, other independence candidates benefit from the list seats... Reply

If we vote SNP on the constituency and another Independence candidate on the list the we should win 70+ Independence seats....locking out the yoons. I agree, independence voters need to really think about their votes. I`ve seen SNP Candidates/ Members say the best thing to do is vote SNP 1 & 2, but I don`t think that is the best way. It`ll be SNP 1 & ALBA 2 for me (or whichever independence candidate is available). I think that gives the best chance of returning the independence candidate with the best chance of winning and some candidates from the list too Reply

13. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Fri 20th Jun 2025. 20:11 We could vote in an entire parliament of Indy parties, it wouldn’t make one jot of difference - we wont be allowed independence. Reply

15. Author: desparado Date: Sun 22nd Jun 2025. 12:29 The vote SNP 1 and 2 or the Vote SNP 1 and say Alba 2 is more complicated. Either option is viable but it depends on the situation in each individual constituency. Will need to think carefully about it nearer the time. What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply

17. Author: jake89 Date: Sun 22nd Jun 2025. 17:16 But why vote for the SNP so many claim have been terrible or an Alba party who are completely unproven? Neither can gain Scottish independence. Reply

19. Author: jake89 Date: Sun 22nd Jun 2025. 19:32 So they`re not NuSNP anymore, Tenruh? Reply
20. Author: Tenruh Date: Sun 22nd Jun 2025. 20:25 jake89, Sun 22 Jun 19:32 So they`re not NuSNP anymore, Tenruh? Indeed they`re not, might even do some leafletting for DB...the more seats the lovely SNP wins in the constituency list the greater the chances that a different independence candidate has of getting in on the list. Apparently 8% needed to get a list candidate elected. Onwards and Upwards Jaky Country before Party Reply
