    I was all in favour of independence in 2014, but the vote went the other way and I personally think we should stick to that for a generation.
    Not impressed with the raise in council tax in Aberdeen, and the talk of increasing business rates, but is that all down to the SNP and the MSPs?
    Would never vote Tory, no matter what. Labour is as big a joke as the Liberal Democrats, so if not the SNP, then the Greens?

    Very indecisive i have to admit.....
    You could abstain. I will likely abstain from voting like the majority of SNP MPs did for the GE vote.

    This is an interesting site that has the full list of Scottish seats and predictions on percentages. The one thing these predictions have not taken into account is tactical voting and as far as I see have just used an average of the polls and not looked at the poll trends. If there is tactical voting in various seats plus lower turnout the predictions could be also be very different.

    Very interesting to see what happens but likelihood is SNP lose seats with a large number of lower majorities in the seats they do win.

    Our local SNP MP has done the square root of f*ck all since he won. Still a massive improvement on Gemma Doyle.

    I think people are over playing their vote. Just go to the ballot box & don't act like a hun

    Another landslide for the SNP then. I'd be surprised if the Tories don't come away with at least 6 seats.

    I'll bounce like we've won the cup if that snivelling wee rat Mundell gets punted!

    I've been a Green voter pretty much my whole adult life bar a couple of Labour votes. But seriously thinking of going SNP this time as the thought of more Tories in Scotland and a smug Ruth the mooth makes me wanna puke!

    She's the most arrogant politician about, you'd think she was the one with all the support at the polls. She sounds worried now though, going on about tactical voting and the union. Displaying the obsessive nature that she decries the SNP for. If they pick 3 seats she'll spin it as a victory but she really needs double figures at least if she wants to put another referendum to bed.

    They'll paint it as some kind of victory if they gain even just a few seats, when the reality is that all it will be is tactical voting. They'll still be the most hated party in Scotland by far.

    Christ, she and her party must be doing something right as so far in the Council Elections they have won...

    1)For the first time ever, the Tories had a councillor elected in Paisley's Ferguslie Park - the most deprived part of Scotland
    2)Shettleston (New Conservative councillor Thomas Kerr, 20, said he was "shocked" to be elected)
    3)Ravenscraig (Maggie shutdown the steelworks, she'll be laughing her @rse off from hell)

    It's the No Surrender vote. Hun fuds that believe the Union is more important than their kids being minks.
