We all know that #ScottishLabour are much closer to the #SNP on policies than they are to #UKLabour. So would it be a good thing for Scotland if SNP/ScotLab were to agree a coalition deal in which:

1. ScotLab would support the call for #IndyRef2, but would not necessarily campaign for #ScottishIndependence and
2. ScotLab would get the Cabinet Secretary for Transport, with a remit to nationalise Scotland's buses?

#ScotPol

	Yes, Coalition
	Yes, but Confidence & Supply
	No, no deal with the hated enemy
	Three way coalition with Greens as well

Poll ends at 7:49pm.

@simon_brooke why would they need to go into a coalition with labour when the greens are right there & are more natural allies?

@kathimmel Because #Oil. Stephen Flynn has promised the oil and gas industry in Scotland glory days ahead. That's incompatible with a survivable planet, and if @ScottishGreens were to go into coalition without a clear statement that the SNP utterly reject Flynn's stance and stand by all their existing #ClimateChange commitments, they would betray us all.

Independence on a dead planet would be a very hollow victory.
