Pleased to see SNP win our constituency Angus South. And also pleased to see Greens win a couple of constituency seats in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Our SNP MP Stephen Gethins has been newly elected as the MSP for Dundee East, so we will have a Westminster by election upcoming in our seat. But that's ok. Also happy that the Liberals continue their long-time history with Fife North East. Will be interested to see how the regional vote plays out. I voted Green for the regional list.

Congratulations! Scotland seems increasingly like a northerly paradise for its comparative lack of interest in Reform.

Think again. Reform are the joint second largest party in the SP now, albeit with few constituency seats but a lot of regional list seats. While the Tories lost 19 and RefUK gained 17, so it's a slight net loss for the RWNJs, it's disheartening to see so many people willing to vote for RefUK PLC, an explicitly racist, and codedly fascist, party.
