@Indyposterboy Generally, that's a REALLY GOOD PLAN. If all pro-independence voters followed it, we would, as you say, maximise pro #ScottishIndependence
representation.
You can therefore be absolutely certain the #SNP will sabotage it.
I despair of the party, they will always put tribalism first and independence second.
Courage mon brave!
No doubt there will be some of what you speak, however the SNP remains a very broad coalition of interests that will ultimately split. Regardless of SNP tactics:
SNP1/SGP2 is the best electoral play on 7th May
@ISawTheWood @simon_brooke @Indyposterboy I suspect SNP1/SGP2 will broadly be the way to go in the vast majority of Scotland but Iβm still trying to work out the best option for down here in the staunchly Tory (with added leanings towards Reform) deep south west.
I suspect SNP1/SGP2 will still make most sense but Iβm still trying to work out if that really is optimal for here. Iβm concerned it might not be. Anyone got the numbers for a proper analysis?
@adrianww @ISawTheWood @Indyposterboy Although I am now fundamentally a @ScottishGreens voter, I will probably actually vote #SNP constituency/#Green list, protesting bitterly as I do so. Galloway has historically been an SNP/ #Labour/ #Tory three way marginal; Yoon votes will probably bleed from both Labour and Tory to #ReformUKLtd and to block Reform we've really got to vote SNP.
Painful though that will be for me.
@kathimmel @adrianww @ISawTheWood @Indyposterboy @ScottishGreens
Well, so did I. The SNP do NOT deserve to win this election, they have not done well in this last term in government, they need to be told clearly that we're not happy with them, that we want a lefter, greener, more principled and (hopefully) more competent government. But we must block the rise of #ReformUKLtd, especially here in Galloway.
So I probably shall vote SNP constituency, Green list, although I shall moan about it!
