17th October 2014 YOUGOV Poll by regions, age & who'd be best PM
Now I know they are small sub samples, and I know about margin of error, weighting etc etc . But still, 2 different polling organisations and they both have Labour behind the Conservatives and well behind the SNP. I find the findings interesting if this is true, will Labour gain in England only to lose out because of Scotland?

ReplyDeleteLabour are not entitled to Scotland's seats; Scotland is not Labour's personal fiefdom. By the way, there are 59 Westminster constituencies in Scotland. England has 533. Please stop trying to attribute the Labour Party's failings to Scotland.
