Sturgeon up again tomorrow. The SNP fancy this. Bigly. If I was there I think I would be very tempted to vote SNP: Very tempted indeed. A Conservative & Unionist voting for the SNP?  |

Personally, I could perhaps have tactically voted for Salmond’s SNP against Labour, I could not countenance a vote for Sturgeon’s SNP under any circumstances. |

I am in a Highlands constituency where I have voted SNP (more than once!) as a matter of practical politics in wishing to defeat the LDs. I am a conditional Unionist based on the facts and the practicalities of ach situation as it arises. The LDs are by far a more serious threat to my party Britain-wide and any damage they can be made to suffer is worth the risk. It always has been been thus and I have never voted LD. I have voted Independent and Labour as well. |

So what is it that Salmond's got that Sturgeon doesn't have? Let me guess..... |

As I understand it carlton43 specifically voted tactically in order to defeat Charles Kennedy which is a perfectly understandable and noble cause |

The SNP are throwing the kitchen sink at this. Loganair must have made a fortune. Indeed. Kitchen sinks must be quite costly to transport. |

I recall a story from my Worksop days, relating to the Duke of Portland coming back from shooting in Scotland and arranging for his car to be driven onto the platform at Waverley to take the train down to Doncaster when he was met by the same car and taken home to Worksop. He said to his butler. "Well that was a great improvement. Much more relaxing and I took lunch. It was excellent. We must do that again." The butler and the chauffeur had driven out of Waverley and hammered down the prewar A1 to Doncaster without a break and despite hours of dangerous high speed driving only just made it for the Doncaster collect because of slow running by the train between Durham and Darlington and a long signal check just south of York! |

Sounds like the sort of thing the current heir to the throne might do. Keen environmentalist you know. |
