Holty Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 SNP - 55.3% (+26.0) LAB - 35.8% (-8.5) CON - 4.4% (-0.4) UKIP - 3.2% (+3.2) LDEM - 1.3% (-1.3) 34.5% swing from Labour to SNP. If that is replicated across the country in May then, well........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce778 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Should that be Labour -28.5%? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Paisley Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Very encouraging when you consider Glenrothes to be in staunch Labour territory. Perhaps our residents on here from the Kingdom can point out whether Glenrothes is in the Kirkcaldy & Cowdenbeath seat catchment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Endell Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 No, Glenrothes is a separate constituency in its own right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flure Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Aidan Kerr @Aidan_Kerr1 To non-Scottish followers the SNP getting 55% in a council ward in Fife is like the Greens winning Kensington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamntg Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I used to live in Glenrothes West, Tanshall to be precise. Saw the value of my flat drop from £22,000 to £8,000 in a year after everyone in similar properties started dying of carbon monoxide poisoning from the hot air heating that I think I'm right in saying the GDC bought in bulk from East Germany after they condemned them.

Clyde1998 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 These local results are very good for the SNP - and show that the surge isn't just something fake in the polls, there is some substance to it. Hopefully it holds out until May... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde1998 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 The Western Isles results was an Independent gain from Labour - who didn't stand. This Independent stood as an SNP candidate in 2012 - so... it's a sort of win... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
