Good article laying out a compelling argument for SNP 1 Scottish Green 2.
Two points to consider:
1. The General Election proved SNP first past the post seats are not the certainty they once were. Should polls waver SNP voters could/will take the cautious line and give the SNP the list vote.

Fascinating anecdote from A.N. Wilson today in the Mail. 20 years ago the brother of the editor of the newspaper he worked for became a foreign ambassador. Then the late Queen & Prince Philip came to visit the country & left behind a pile of expenses for their official trip. HT @willoyd.bsky.social

Reform UKβs share of BBC and ITV coverage is ridiculous given their number of MPs & considering opposition parties that polled higher (such as Lib Dems) receive such poor coverage.

Donald Trump is a global chaos generator. He couldn't give a damn about the Iranians and will walk away the moment things get difficult, leaving a trail of pointless death and destruction.
It's all about spectacle for him. Once that's achieved, job done.

Uncut Trumpism. No election is valid unless they win it. Farage and Reform UK are outright enemies of democracy and the Mail is actively aiding them.

To maximise the pro-Indy vote in May 26 there needs to be a site which recommends the best 1/2 vote constituency by constituency. So we can decide whether snp1/snp1 or snp1/sg2 is more likely to help win more pro-Indy seats. Is there such? Anyone git plans do do so?

I feel like now is a good time to remind that 1) Steve Bannon has always been a big backer of Farage 2) Steve Bannon played a key role in the January 6 attempted coup 3) why the hell has Bannon avoided accountability for his chumminess with Epstein?

In an independent Scotland my first priority would be to stop foreign, tax-exile type media ownership. They've done so much damage to our country.
If you don't pay tax here, you can't own a megaphone.
