    Tories will win at best 1 seats in Scotland, even in my old stomping ground of East Ren which was the safest tory seat in Scotland and held for many years they only could lose it by putting in a drunk who attacked some motorway protesters with a pick axe handle while his son shot at them with an airifle. That emaciated cock Jim Murphy has been in ever since and is probably going to win again.

    The best thing for England would be to cut Scotland off and let it drift into a socialist hell that it wants to be, if you see me at the border with a cart load of posessions let me through please.

      But I don't think he will. Hung parliament, anyone?
      Major had a single digit majority in 1997. Brown has a much bigger margin.

      The national split of the vote doesn't represent what happens on a seat-by-seat basis. Generally speaking, you need extra (national) points to be sure of overcoming an incumbent MP, so a 10% (national) swing may still not be enough.
