DeeTillEhDeh Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Think this will happen in places too but hope to be proven wrong. Moray better not fucking go. What a shame it would be seeing Angus Robertson lose. A lot has been posted in past few days on social media about the danger of voting Labour in Scotland - one of my daughters was considering voting Labour but went for SNP today after I told her how Scottish Labour were colluding with the Tories in certain constituencies. She also shared that with her friends so you'd hope that similar things were happening elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a bit of a shock if Labour won there going by the bookies odds below. https://www.oddschecker.com/politics/british-politics/edinburgh-north-and-leith/winning-party 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjw Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 No apparently.Just getting the old "not enjoying the journey" vibe from SNP folks annoyed by not being attention central.I thought that as well to be fair. He's you,isn't he? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asking for a friend.. It'll be the 8th election in a row where the SNP have won so, yeh, "the only show in town". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 That depends on whether they are gaining the extra support mainly from the Tories or SNP. It would more than likely be the SNP let's be honest. If you were a Tory last time then surely you wouldn't go near labour this time considering it's Corbyn and even further away than the last time. Unless people just think May is a joke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgertheeuro24witness Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 A lot of people are torn between the 2 'mainstream' British parties so, yes, it's quite feasible that the Tories will lose some seats to Labour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetterlund Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Quite a few workmates and local Facebook friends have had their heads turned by Jezza. Labour are an irrelevance in NE Fife but if it's a wider trend it will see the SNP lose their seat to the Lib Dems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 That depends on whether they are gaining the extra support mainly from the Tories or SNP. Labour votes going up in Glasgow won't be enough SNP majorities to big. Labour vote uniformly going up across country decreases torys chances in marginals. Thus a close tory v labour % will benefit 'the only show in town' imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I think the polls that have the SNP dropping 10+ seats are wrong. I always think that as the incumbents they have the edge and not many of the seats are particularly marginal. I'd be amazed if they lost places like Moray. We will see of course, I have a terrible record at predictions.From a P&B perspective, heavy SNP losses would be pretty funny, lots of heads gone potential. Same if they hold all their seats. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Your Own Socks Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 A lot has been posted in past few days on social media about the danger of voting Labour in Scotland - one of my daughters was considering voting Labour but went for SNP today after I told her how Scottish Labour were colluding with the Tories in certain constituencies. She also shared that with her friends so you'd hope that similar things were happening elsewhere. My son had it out with a lassie at work today who voted SLAB because someone gave her a Corbyn t shirt. In a world of instant decisions on social media the knowledge of five decades of wasteful laziness by Scottish Labour will be beyond the likes of her. Corbyn spent his whole life in politics and achieved nothing and after 2 years of lethargic indifference as leader of the Opposition, in the space of a fortnight, is being treated like a Messiah for getting shouty and lying at the same speed that a Tory can. SNP is the only Scottish party to be trusted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Margin of error about 2% Exit polls can be wrong too. In 1992, we got told to expect a hung Parliament. Then we got the Basildon result and the night nosedived. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
