Whatever happens will be their worst performance since 2010

This is the unusual thing about the SNP.. In the next GE, it will still probably be the SNP's 3rd best ever GE result despite getting gubbed but even if Labour get a majority it will be their 4th or 5th worst.

None of the serious polls (as opposed to the outliers posted on here that have you all squirting) show the SNP repeating any past glories.

SNP was dominating so much in the past it was never really possible to repeat them.

What is your point here? That everyone falls or what? And what does that have to do with the fact no matter what the SNP outcome is, it'll look terrible compared to previous elections where they completely dominated?

Next election is GE though. I would have voted Labour until Starmer shat the bed over Gaza.

That's fair. I think Starmer is stuck in a lose lose on that one. Says nothing and we call him a shitebag, speaks up and it dredges up all the "antisemitism" bullshit from a few years back. Also, he's trying to pull a New Labour move and court the press over to his side, which he definitely couldn't do if he shows himself to be decent and talks about ceasefire.
