There’s the result for the ‘shock’ Labour win over the SNP in the Western Isles.
BBC Scotland seem not to publishing the actual numbers, the raw data, though they do mention that, the winner:
MacKinnon, who works in community development and manages a community-owned trust in Carloway on Lewis, won by 154 votes.
Only 154?
I can’t help but wonder how many voted for Kenny Mackenzie of the Alliance to Liberate Scotland?
It was 159!
Am I alone in being frankly p****d off by that?

I agree – either self-entitled ego mania to get their name on the ballot paper or a deliberate attempt to muddy the waters.

No, you are not alone. I thought there were too many tiny parties taking votes away from the main contenders especially if they actually do want Scotland to be free from Westminster.
I feel time is running out especially with the rise of Reform. Nigel Farage as PM will cause untold damage.
SNP need to rebut the negativity from BBC, etc, try to educate people and encourage them to vote although how you change the minds of those who “always vote Labour because my father, grandfather, etc always voted for them” is a bit of a task. A blind man running for a bus could see through Sarwar and Baillie’s lies and don’t start me on Starmer😬
