NONE of the assertions that we should vote for something other than SNP on the list stand up to any serious examination. The fanciful suggestion that voting for other indy parties on the list will win lots of extra seats is indeed fanciful. So let’s have a serious look at it. First point. That will take no votes from the Unionists. Unionists will get as many seats as their votes suggests no matter how many other indy options are made available. That’s the way the system works. Their vote is collapsing. They’ll get fewer seats. Second point. The new indy parties will in fact only take votes from SNP and, more probably, the Greens. To be sure of a SNP majority in the parliament it will need to be confident of getting five or six list seats. If the silly division of the indy vote results in SNP losing some of those, I know who I’ll blame.
