It'll tank even further if Labour do indeed sweep the board in England at the next GE ... because the SNP are partially bolstered by anti-Tory sentiment - Wee Nic for example leveraged Scottish dislike of Tories very often (and very effectively). If that "enemy" is out of play for a while that is a strategic "loss" for the SNP as well. Plenty of "new" (post-2008) SNP voters will flip back to Labour if they see Labour as a viable option.

the SNP also benefited in the past from labour being almost unelectable in england, so it was like a protest vote against the tories. If labour look like they are going to win, then it makes much morse sense to have as many scottish representatives within that party as they can, to increase the scottish influence

My dad (who is 70) for example was a life-long Labour voter... my parents even used to have one of those little signs for the living room window. He's been SNP since Cameron entered No. 10 but I strongly suspect he'll happily flip back to Labour at the next GE.

the labour leader up here is every bit as vile and deluded as useless

Tommy R, Darren Grimes and Lozza also re-posted this on X so it went far and wide

Scottish Conservatives

In key seats across Scotland at the General Election, it's a straight fight between the
@scotTories
and the SNP.

On July 4, lets vote together to beat the SNP and get the focus back on your real priorities.

Today I announced that I will be standing down as leader of the Scottish
Conservatives after the General Election. You can read my statement below:

Open 'swift' probe into Douglas Ross expenses, SNP urge watchdogs



THE SNP have written to two Westminster watchdogs calling for an investigation
to be opened into embattled Scottish Tory leader Douglas Ross.

"The Sunday Mail reports, ‘his team identified the 28 [claims] where he wrongly
used parliamentary-funded travel to facilitate ref work’, including ‘multiple
cases where Ross had combined parliamentary travel with linesman work or
claims for parking while refereeing on expenses’. These claims were allegedly
‘hushed up by worried aides’.

Dr Hilary Cass has been very clear that a ban on so-called ‘conversion therapy’
would prevent appropriate counselling for gender-confused young people. Looks
like the SNP have already decided to reject her review recommendations.

The SNP said the election was a de facto referendum on independence.

Well, the results are in:

Yes 34.4%
No 64.7%

The people of Scotland have given the pro-UK parties an overwhelming
mandate to maintain the Union.

The matter is now settled.

First week back after a 9 week summer recess and the SNP are devoting an
entire afternoon ⁦@ScotParl ⁩ to discussing Gaza. A total waste of Parliamentary
time when there are so many issues under Holyrood’s remit to debate.
