Labour losing support in Scotland after winter fuel payment row | Poll based on voting intentions for Holyrood election show Anas Sarwar’s party falling behind SNP as Reform makes ground
September 17, 2024
Analysis by Prof. John Curtice suggests, the results (according to the poll) would be:
Would be a crazy result – governance would be difficult, with a balancing act needed between each party. Will be interesting to see if that Reform share holds steady through to 2026, and once the tories have established their leaders.
Also interesting polling from the article:
>Senior Labour figures have stressed the party is not minded to devolve many more powers to Holyrood as part of its offer to Scottish voters.
>However, 50 per cent of those polled by Opinium said the Scottish parliament had too little power, including 27 per cent of “no” voters.
If anyone thinks the SNP will get close to 47 seats then I have some magic beans to sell to you.
16 seats to Reform!
Fucking hell!
After being pampered for years a part of the country still want to be pampered and will vote in people who promise this shocker
Interesting shift in the polls! It’ll be fascinating to see how this plays out in the next election
