SNP hold Aberdeen Donside.

SNP hold Western Isles.

SNP hold Clydebank and Milngavie.

SNP hold Perthshire North.

SNP hold Dundee city West - Labour vote down as well.

SNP hold Banffshire and Buchan Coast - this was predicted to be an SNP loss so this is a win.

You’ll be pleased to hear that the Scottish Family Party are losing their deposits because they aren’t getting enough votes.

SNP hold Falkirk East.

SNP hold Angus North and Mearns.

SNP GAIN EAST LOTHIAN YA FUCKING DANCER!!!!!

Let’s check in with the “"experts”“ hired by the BBC to see what they’re saying;

Lmaooooooooooooooo

oh-glasgow:

I find it fascinating that back in 2014, the same people that voted No because they hated Alex Salmond, and said that the SNP are a cult-like party… are the same ones that are applauding that Alex Salmond has started up the Alba Party… which is pretty much a one-man show.

I don’t care for Alex Salmond. I didn’t vote Yes in 2014 for him, I voted Yes because I wanted Scotland to be in control of its own destiny.

I don’t care for the Alba Party. I find that so many of their candidates and supporters are the very worst kind of independence voters, bigots, and terfs. And they can all get tae fuck.

The wildest part is seeing the media give Salmond all these column inches, when his party is polling at < 3%; [source]

Why, you’d have to wonder why the English-based, pro-Brexit (mostly), billionaire-owned media outlets would be getting Salmond stories and anti-SNP hit pieces out every single day. Nicola Sturgeon is by-far the most popular politician in Scotland / UK [source] whereas Alex Salmond is, well, not;

Could it be that they don’t want the SNP to get a majority like they did in 2011? Which resulted in them getting a mandate for an independence referendum in 2014?

The goal for me will always be Scottish independence. And the party that I feel that can best deliver that is going to be the SNP. We can certainly say that they need to do better… but which government would do a better job than them based on the amount we’re “”allowed”” to spend by Westminster? 

The argument is going to be when can we have another referendum to decide this. But the biggest obstacle is that the SNP/Greens don’t get a majority in the elections. Because you know that the media would go with the “no appetite for independence!” line which is what they’ve been saying for the best part of a decade.

Anyway, fuck Alex Salmond, fuck the Tories, fuck Labour, fuck the Lib Dems, and fuck British loyalist George Galloway.

Give both your votes to the SNP.

I swear to fucking christ that if anyone following this blog votes Alba ahead of the SNP tomorrow that I will come to their house and say that while I respect their participation in democracy I will also batter them.

Do not fuck this up.
