There is no doubt that the obvious failure of 14 years of various Tory UK governments and now also the obvious failure of a new Labour (Tory) UK government since 2024 , who as the new Labour (Tory) UK government, are seemingly determined to go down the same cruel, disastrous and dangerous path as the previous Tory governments went , has now left voters feeling tremendously let down by politics and also by (pro) UK political parties.

We, and others, know 100% that Reform UK are not the solution, as in the panacea, to the woes people have suffered under various mainstream UK political parties as UK governments.

As we all know that Reform UK will only add to , as in exacerbate in the future, all of our past and current woes derived from the many terrible policies and bad decisions made by selfish and cruel mainstream UK governments.

In Holyrood, Reform UK , will be just another UK protest party against the SNP and also very much against Scottish independence.

Richard Tice, the Deputy leader of Reform UK, offered an olive branch to Anas Sarwar in saying that if any MSP’s were elected from his party in 2026, as in Reform UK, then they would vote for Sarwar to be the next FM, which resulted in Sarwar stating that would leave him “open” as a potential new Labour FM to “listening to” future suggestions and having future discussions with Reform UK MSP’s.

However the same Richard Tice from the same Reform UK party has been dismissive and critical of Sarwar’s English boss, Keir Starmer, as the UK PM.

As Reform UK wants to steal votes away from English Labour in the up and coming English Council elections and also subsequently in the next UK GE in 2029.

Sarwar seems cool with that, as his ambition to be the next FM in Scotland, overrides his political opposition to those who are clearly a ‘rival’ party , and a threat, to Labour HQ, where perhaps with more pro UK parties within Holyrood, then not so great minds can think alike in the Scottish parliament, if and only when it is controlled by English Nationalist political parties.

I fail to see how any intelligent or fair minded voters in Scotland will see Reform UK, a party led by Nigel Farage, as the best option for them either personally or for Scotland politically.

Or indeed how Sarwar as FM will be any different to how Starmer as the UK PM has been , as far as trust and keeping promises are concerned, as in they both obviously do not deserve to be trusted or seen to be politicians who keep their election campaign promises !

The UK GE campaign in 2024 Should haunt Labour in the 2026 Scottish elections.

However I can see how some less intelligent and less fair minded people (Bigots even), who normally vote for the Tories but who now consider the Tories to be a politically spent force , may then vote for Nigel’s Pseudo political (protest) party in 2026. As many of these voters will never “surrender” to Scotland while they themselves as ‘British’ voters and ‘British’ citizens pledge an neverending allegiance to a Royalist English politically controlled Britain.

We may , in Scotland, have an excessive amount of mainstream media and also too an excessive amount of alternative media, who are all against the SNP in Scotland in the run up to the 2026 Scottish elections.

However we also unfortunately still have within our midst an element of the kind of voters who seem determined to continue along the path of celebrating chaos , indeed encouraging it, in them continuing to vote in elections for the antithesis of political progress for Scotland. (as in anyone but the SNP).

That kind of opposition that exists within Scotland can only be overcome politically in many more non politically compromised voters all finally waking up to the reality of what is best for them, their families and friends and also the place that they actually live in, Scotland.

Where they as non politically compromised voters in Scotland have no obsessive, or fervent , or all consuming, or fanatical , or excessively extreme , or manic commitment and overwhelming allegiance to a now defunct Royalist Britain dominated and controlled by English political parties.

Many of these UK (English dominant) political parties request that we, the public, must use our “common sense”.

Now if that, “Common sense”, was applied by the public in Scotland (as in the non politically compromised public ) then parties like the Tories, Labour, Lib Dems and Reform UK would be minor elements (irritants only) within our politics in Scotland.

We, via a majority, need to vote SNP in 2026 as a first step to prove to English Nationalist parties that Scotland is not a colony owned by England , where they and their English parliament, can plunder our resources and profit by them while declaring that Scotland is the subsidy ‘Junkie’ of their Britain or their UK. (take your pick).

Where they cannot try to corrupt our politics in Scotland in the same way that they have corrupted politics within England .

(Though a certain type of voter within Scotland will always vote against what is best for anywhere but Scotland, thankfully they are in the minority, hence why their previous choice of party , the Tories, have never become the Scottish government in our Scottish parliament).

Mind you those certain type of voters, if they do intend to vote for Reform UK in 2026, then technically they, as voters, will still be voting for the Tories Ha Ha, as many former Tory Councillors have now defected to the Reform UK party and some, like perhaps Thomas Kerr , may stand for reform UK in 2026 .

Vote SNP in 2026 or suffer the dire consequences that will surely ensue if you vote for either Labour, Tory, Lib Dem, or God Forbid, for Reform UK (who seek to neither reform anything other than their own personal and political fortunes and also the fortunes of those who fund them, so any reform they intend to make for Scotland will be for the worse) as they, as a party, are an obvious English Nationalist party first and foremost. Pass it on please.
