General Election 8th June

[VNA]

VNA be man enough to admit this election was a fucking disaster for the SNP they lost 21 seats ffs, and only hung onto one by 2 votes

Lew, I’m not a member of the SNP and I’m not an SNP supporter.


No, it was not a great night for the SNP.  They won the election, it was a victory, but not exactly a resounding victory.


The SNP would have been happy with 40 seats, and delighted with 45.


They won.  No doubt about it.  Again, not a good night, but far from a “fucking disaster” Lew



The Conservative Party, however did have a fucking disastrous night.  No doubt about that.


Ms Sturgeon will remain as leader of the SNP.  And, and, I say this as somebody who is neither a member nor a supporter of the SNP, the most disciplined party in the UK will be having a long hard look at why they have taken a step back in popularity.  I expect they will make changes – education springs to mind.  Sturgeon however isn’t going anywhere.


I’ll tell you two things Lew.


Sturgeon will lead her party into the next major election, be that Scottish parliamentary election or Scottish election.  Right now, I put money on her and her party winning again.



Ms May has led her party into her first, and her last, general election as leader.
