Talk about sour grapes - I was surprised by response

Will the Scottish Greens forward march continue?

The Scottish Greens aren’t winning fast enough. They recorded their best-ever result in the recent Scottish parliament election, winning eight of the country’s 129 MSPs and just over 8 per cent of the vote. They pushed the Liberal Democrats into fifth place in 2016 and have kept them there, and polls occasionally show them snapping at Labour’s heels for third. As fellow independence supporters, they are the first party the SNP turns to for support as a minority government, giving the Greens an influence on policy that far outstrips their representation. They are serious players, not just in devolved terms, but also within the alliance that could break up the Union, a status which earns them surprisingly little attention from either the UK or the Scottish press. But as environmentalists, they know that time isn’t on their side. 

What would be a good night for the Conservatives in the 2021 local elections?

What is the most important issue facing the United Kingdom? According to most voters, it’s the coronavirus pandemic and the resulting lockdown. What is the only way to end a pandemic? Vaccines and palliative treatments. What is the United Kingdom currently doing well? Vaccines! As such, it is difficult to imagine a better backdrop to the local elections across England for the ruling Conservatives (though it is more complicated in Scotland and Wales, where to differing extents the SNP and Labour-Liberal Democrat governments can point to their own successful roll-outs). It may be enough for them to exceed the usual yardstick for a governing party, which is simply to avoid getting absolutely stuffed.
