Could the SNP change their strategy after the election? Geoff Aberdein wonders if the SNP could take a step back from independence and focus on working in tandem with other parties public service reform, if they fail to earn a majority in the Scottish Parliament.
“The financial situation doesn’t allow for a continuation of that” Andy Maciver suggests that this new Scottish government has to forge its own path and be totally different from previous SNP administrations. Can (and will) the SNP succeed during another term in power?
Stephen Flynn answers the question as to whether he wants to be First Minister one day and if that is why he made the move from London to Edinburgh. He suggests that instead one of the main reasons for his move to Holyrood was to spend more time with his own family and not to pursue high office.
“For the SNP to get a majority they would pretty much have to win every marginal” Andy Maciver sets out how the SNP could achieve their coveted majority, and that it would take more than a couple of lucky results if they were to pull it off.
"Reform clearly benefits from that" @ailsahenderson.bsky.social, from the University of Edinburgh, suggests that Reform's messaging is resonating somewhat well with Scottish voters, but suggests that it's not the first time a party in Scotland has attempted to shake-up the status quo.
“He doesn’t even have to look at them” If Reform UK and the Scottish Conservatives have a chance to elect Labour’s Anas Sarwar as First Minister, will they do so? Andy Maciver explains why he thinks that they won’t have a choice.
Why are the SNP not paying the cost of governing? @ailsahenderson.bsky.social from the University of Edinburgh points out that the SNP seem to bucking the trend of long-term governments waning in popularity, with the party ahead in every Scottish Parliament election opinion poll.
Now that Scottish Labour have failed to meet their goal of being the biggest party in parliament and Anas Sarwar is not First Minister… what actually is Labour’s purpose, and what can they achieve in opposition? Calum Macdonald asks new MSP Katherine Sangster.
What will Nicola Sturgeon's legacy look like? Andy Maciver suggests that the former First Minister could be remembered for things other than what she would consider her personal achievements.
“That involves you leaving behind a lot of 2016 SNP policy” Andy Maciver asks whether the SNP has been too focused on welfare and if now is the time to try to grow Scotland’s economy. Stephen Flynn argues that his party can achieve both. Is this an unrealistic expectation for the SNP government?
Will this 'examination' ever be complete?🤔 We need full BDS. Our bill to sanction Israel will be voted on in the Dáil this Wednesday evening. We need to fully cut genocidal Israel off economically, just like was done with apartheid South Africa. #VoteToSanctionIsrael
