The point is, what are all you "socialists" going to do when Labour, Tory, and Lib Dem, join forces again to remove power from the large group of SNP MPs about to be elected?
Get real for once, Steve is correct, Labour will be finished if it works with SNP.....and SNP have avowed never to work with the Tories
That leaves no option but a "Government of National Unity", or in other words the "Return of the Three Stooges."
Politically that would remove the balance of power from the SNP at a stroke, but set up massive constitutional difficulties....attacks would be made on the Barnet formula as attempts are made to "put the Scots in their place"....as Steve says Many English hate the Scots for their Bolshie attitude and what they perceive as an undeserved share of UK revenues(Barnett formula)

Knowing the strength of feeling in Scotland for political movement towards further devolution and independence this is a recipe for disaster, and will led directly to UDI.

UDI could mean Scotland out of the EU. Something I would love to see, but by then, the EU will doubtless want to see the back of the whole of the UK anyway.

Interesting times and the "left" credentials" of many Mudcatters will be tested to the limit.
