Jeremy Corbyn

[Doon frae Troon]

Unfortunately not Doon,
Full facts here:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1979_vote_of_no_confidence_in_the_Callaghan_ministry

635 Mp’s
311 Aye
310 No
4 Abstensions
4 Tellers (Not counted in vote)
6 Vacant (Not counted in vote)

Yes sorry, I am getting my knickers in a twist with the 40% win margin Scots devolution vote.
Mind you ...who were the 4 abstentions

Whilst Corbyn is on the stump championing equal pay for women, perhaps he should reflect on this recent case at Glasgow Cooncil.

Not unless Doon's taken to the cloth and become a Church of Scotland minister. Damn religious types - they should keep out of politics. Not in Scotland they don't...they are very much of and for the people, and have got involved in Scottish/UK politics for many hundreds of years - and for me long may that continue. Note - I'm not commenting on the background and views of of this specific minster.

Seems to be quite a few 'activists' leaving the SNP due to them being too much involved with Brexit and not enough with independence.
They see Brexit as an English only matter.

Scores folk thinking which way to vote saying sod this I'll vote SNP and get SNP.

Don't Labour usually rely on getting Scottish seats to get them a majority? Whereas for the Tories generally don't have to rely on them quite so heavily. So maybe the Labour slogan is more accurate. Having said that maybe the Tories mean a Labour/SNP coalition.

Tories and Labour are bedfellows in Scotland, The are in a coalition in 9 Councils in Scotland and in the 2016 GE formed a pact against the SNP.
Tories asking Labour to lend them their votes in this election to keep out the SNP.
Really difficult to call how the GE will go but I feel that the SNP will win around 45 seats, with the other three taking 4 or 5 seats each.
Basic rule of thumb is Tory + Labour votes = SNP votes
