Scottish Conservative MP’s After the Next Election
http://scottishsketch.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 05/ 12/ scottish-conservative-mps-after-t...
Yes that’s plural. In all the fun of the Scottish Parliamentary Labour Party vs The Labour Party (which does sound like a divorce decree nee The War of the Roses), it’s worthwhile considering who the main beneficiary will be at the upcoming General Election. On a UK level, it’s looking more and more likely that this will be portrayed as a ‘how many seats can Cameron’s Conservatives win?’ contest, and if (a) this will get them to a majority, and (b) how big that majority will be. The scottish view of the party is going to be very interesting. I don’t yet think that the Tories are in any place well suited for a revival across the country.
