WHAT is the SNP’s Westminster story? To get through to voters in the trash bin of UK politics, you need a unique selling point.
What can the SNP offer in their current situation which, to be very diplomatic, we could describe as one of full-spectrum problems?
But even more damning has been the ruthless suppression of what remained of the Labour left no matter how dirty the tactics. Scottish voters have little respect or regard for him.What is there to say about Rishi Sunak? A shallow chancer, intelligent but with no substance. Scottish voters also know this. But voters don’t in general have high expectations of political leaders so this won’t be the decider.policy weaknesses are not the fabrication of opponents. They are real.
It has been Westminster’s shame that the SNP group have been the only party that has given voice to large sections not just of the Scottish but UK public on crucial international issues. On Gaza where there has been a clear UK majority opposed to Israel’s appalling war crimes, neither Labour nor Tory have acted for that majority.
Summing all of these unique selling points up on their own probably does not represent the strong, independence-first campaign some were hoping for. Nor does it inspire fresh ideas or new talent.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
