    The Conservatives are set to lose all their Scottish seats to the SNP in a general election, a new poll suggests. There are 13 Tory MPs in Scotland, but the YouGov poll for the People's Vote campaign indicates they would all be replaced by the SNP.

    The polling, which was conducted exclusively in Conservative-held constituencies across Scotland, points to a 14% drop in the party's vote share in these seats, down from 44% to 30%. Meanwhile, the vote share for the SNP is predicted to rise from 34% to 42%. The poll shows a majority of voters in these constituencies would vote to keep the UK in the EU in a new referendum, by 63% to 37%

    Top priority has to be blocking No Deal Brexit - Bozo can't be trusted with an election before the end of October - but once we get to November it should be game on.
    “The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

    Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”

    Latest poll shows Tories to be wiped out in Scotland in upcoming GE. This could make the SNP kingmakers. Considering Corbyn and McDonnell have already thrown their weight behind a second Indy referendum this could be a route to installing a Labour government in England.

    A referendum the SNP may well not win if there's a Labour government in England.

    Interesting times.
