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 !
