The more Scotland talks about how they don't want to be with us, the more I feel we should just say "okay, go away then- we don't want you either"

Unless you are a  Tory pray that they stay.

Scotland right now provides 58 left leaning polticians, and 1 Conservative.

That's more leftwing voters then the entire Lib Dem contingent.


To put that in perspective... If during the 2010 election scotland was excluded that would of given the Tory's 333 Seats... aka greater then 50% before any talk of a coalition.

Unless my math is off.

Scotland only has enough politicians to decide particularly close elections however - historically most votes have been one-sided enough that Scotland's seats wouldn't make a difference one way or the other

Yeah, guess i'm more used to US super rigidity.

Looking at the 2005 elections, the Torys would of only improved to around 214 Seats.

 

They went from 194 to 306, that's crazy.
