That's certainly what lies behind Glasgow Labour being a registered description of the Scottish Labour Party.

Didn't expect a standstill result tbh, thought there would be a swing one way or the other. |

I think it's just under a half of one percent swing PC to Lab since last May, but yeah, basically stand still |

Yes - very good result for Aberdeen Labour and a poor SNP one - will be interesting to see if that's replicated in the other 2 Scottish elections coming up.

Very good result for Labour, good result for the conservatives to and for the Lib Dem's who see there vote holding up, Alba just real outing in a by election.... not sure if they would be happy with that or wanted a bit more....
