Scotland: Sturgeon Storms Ahead

NEWS FROM THE CELTIC LEAGUE

Good news for the SNP ahead of the forthcoming Scottish Parliament elections the SNP is recorded on 60% in the constituency voting intention in a new poll. That is more than enough to give them all the constituency seats and a majority in the parliament with the other parties only set to get seats on the ‘list’ system.

It is all the more astonishing because the complex voting system for the parliament was designed to stop any single party getting a majority.

When the SNP got a majority last time it was thought to be an aberration linked to the pro independence surge however it seems the swing to nationalism is more deep-seated.

Here’s a link to analysis by voting intentions blogger James Kelly:
