I'm thinking of voting AGAINST SNP.
So my plan is this:
The constituency vote is winner takes all - so vote for second place: Labour
The regional vote uses the Additional Member System, so you can vote for the top 4 parties, so i'll vote Conservative for this (as UKIP won't be top 4)
please tell me if this is correct
bump
guess you fucks are at work

>Would rather Scottish Labour than the SNP
What kind of cuck are you? Labour share all of the same faults with the SNP but offer none of the benefits.
>>71729454
>Labour
>would rather become a EU vassal under the UK as a vassal and have no problem telling that
>SNP
>would rather become a direct vassal and get arsefucked harder under the guise of MUH FREEDUMB
I wouldn't call that cucked, friend. They're also less authoritarian.
>>71729454
I don't think having a Nationalist party being dominant is a good idea
>>71729811
>SNP
>nationalist
>>71729592
>Vote to leave the UK
>Vote to leave the EU
It's like you don't want your children to live in a sovereign nation. You are forever going to have a lefty government for as long as Conservatives are seen as the party of southern England/London
SNP Local, UKIP national.
>>71730025
Oh i never said i'd vote for either of them, i was just suggesting that one may be the lesser evil if you had to choose a or b.
UKIP National.
Fuck everything SNP. They are the most cancerous thing to happen to this country in all of my 27 years.
>>71730229
is it not a waste of a vote?
>>71730333
No its not
They're expecting to win a few seats
Also a lot of people recently started to dislike the SNP
Most Scots will never vote Tory or Labour now
Green and Lib Dems arent even popular enough to be memes
=> im predicting a UKIP surge
>>71730333
Because they won a MEP in Scotland during the last election?
>>71730522
they got beat pretty bad last time

>>71730770
Yeah but times have changed a lot
They'll get a few seats from anti EU and anti SNP sentiment
>>71730857
Only the top 4 get seats though, which is currently:
1.SNP
2.Labour
3.Conservatives
4.Lib Dem
>>71727513
Voting anything but conservative for parliament will split the opposition vote and insure an SNP victory. Doesn't mater if you like this, it only mater that you have to insure the SNP gets fewer seats
You can vote whatever you want locally, but if you vote left, fucking kill yourself.
>>71732434
ah i see, so >>71728109 won't work
