UK ELECTION : SCOTTISH VOTE IS THE KEY FACTOR !

Opinion Polls indicate that the Scottish National Party (SNP) could expect 49% of the votes in Scotland on May 7, 2015 !  This confirms the recent impression that the SNP has become a real force to be reckoned with even though the Referendum on Scottish Independence was lost ! 

What this really meant was that Scottish voters were not convinced that all the conditions of Independence from the UK had been negotiated !   They really only wanted more local government ! 

In 2010, 59 MPs were elected (41 for Labour, 11 LibDems,  6 SNP and 1 Conservative).  The swing to SNP could see at least 30 SNP MPs being elected !  Labour could lose 20 if not many more !

SNP would dearly love to hold the balance of power between the Conservatives and Labour and then negotiate more favourable terms for Scotland !  Higher pensions for Scots has already been mooted, but not for the Irish or Welsh ? 

Labour and Miliband are prepared to offer anything and everything for a Coalition with SNP, but at present they are bereft of any sound ideas of where to find the Finance for any of their promises !  

Blair has given his unreserved backing to Miliband saying that he is the Saviour the Socialists need ! This may in fact become a timely reminder to  Electors of the bankrupt mess that the Conservatives inherited from the Socialists in 2010 !  

Since then it has taken David Cameron 5 years to clean up the mess with the help of the LibDems Coalition !   Enough is enough !
