ICTChris Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Kenny Farquharson has tweeted that Scottish Labour are saying that they are ahead or within a percentage point of the SNP in the following Westminister seats, based on ward voting in the council elections. I have added the sitting SNP MPs majority for reference. East Lothian Labour: 33.08% SNP: 27.92% Difference: +5.16 (SNP maj - 6,803) Coatbridge, Chryston and Bellshill Labour: 42.95% SNP: 41.3% Difference: +1.65 (SNP Maj - 11,501) Lanark and Hamilton East Labour: 32.12% SNP: 31.21% Difference: +0.91 (SNP Maj - 10,100) Midlothian Labour: 30.2% SNP: 30.67% Difference: -0.46 (SNP maj - 9,859) Airdrie and Shotts Labour: 39.05% SNP: 39.55 Difference: -0.50 (SNP maj - 8,779) Glasgow South West Labour: 38.38% SNP: 39.12% Difference: -0.74 (SNP maj - 9,950) Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath Labour: 33.58% SNP: 34.56% Difference: -0.97(SNP maj - 9,974) I've seen a few people make comparisons between the SNP vote in the local elections last week, the 2015 General Election and the 2016 Scottish Parliament elections - I think these comparisons are disingenuous. These figures can be illuminating - actual votes in real elections are always going to be a good guide - but local elections are different to national elections. Something like 10% of the vote nationally went to independent candidates, that obviously isn't going to be replicated. If you compare the 2011 Scottish Parliament election to the 2012 local elections you see a drop off for the SNP but one that wasn't sustained into national elections in 2015 or 2016. On the other hand, the turnout for these local elections was pretty solid, especially considering they were stand alone elections not on the same day as a national election. That could suggest that these results will be more closely replicated on the day. Overall, I'd be very surprised if the Labour Party win any of these seats on June 8th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only is it a completely different voting system, but voter turnout will differ greatly. It's like comparing apples and space shuttles. f**k me, Scottish Labour are an utter shambles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know that the auld yins will vote come rain or shine, hence why the major political parties pander to the grey vote to the extent they do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
