It'll come.

SNP are now on the slippery slope with little hope of recovery. The loss of short money is devastating to their day-to-day operations and the evisceration of the power of the National Executive Committee and the imposition of a set of nutball DEI rules for the selection of Holyrood candidate by the outgoing Nicola Sturgeon is going to spark internecine war between the useless hingers-oan and the unseated former SNP MPs in the run up to Holyrood 2025.

The SNP is now in the same mode as the Conservatives of the last two years - a decline of their own making.

An interview with Joanna Cherry by ITV was very telling. The party has been nursing a split since Bloatfud was ousted as the SNP commons leader and had been effectively operating as two separate parties in Holyrood and Westminster. The Westminster gang are now heading north and they ain't happy...

BBC reporting that the SNP have conceded the last seat. Seems SNP have ended up with less than 10 seats.

That was a trully wonderful interview with Cherry, and as always Nippy failed to pick up on the real reasons Independence is floundering, yet again blaming it on Westminster. She really is a disgrace, and why ITV thought it appropriate to have her on the show in the first place is questionable at best.
I totally agree. Totally shell shocked that that wee niaf was sitting in that studio. An astoundingly bad call by ITV.

It did mean she had nowhere to hide whilst watching everything she worked so hard for fall apart.

Good call. I'll have a stopgap, and save another for either of

- SNP declares bankruptcy,
- Senior SNP figures convicted,

Maybe even both.

They've certainly gone very quiet on their 'de facto referendum' part of their election campaign.

You'll have had your second referendum then. Is it two generations before the next one now?
