#Prestwick #SNP & Maree Todd & other SNP don't want people to know the actual state of play of list votes & list seats. They would rather you wasted it than vote for another pro-indy Scot Green MSP & let unionists get the seats instead.
This is NOT a pro-indy strategy.
#SNP1SGP2 NOT #BothVotesSNP
Of course he does. Every Labour government, like the Tories, has shafted Scotland and extracted what they need while keeping Scotland beholden. Time for a change. Time for real independence.

We put these numbers into the Devolved Elections site & did our usual "What if 50% SNP2 voted SGP2 instead" scenario.
The SGP list MSPs would more than double to 24; a possible pro-indy supermajority.
All as the #SNP continue to poll for ZERO list MSPs.

That's 14/15 polls have given that outcome now.
So many wasted list votes getting nothing!

Reminder: if some calamity should befall the SNP before 7th May & their vote drops, we could lose the pro-indy majority.
However, as we get more pro-indy MSPs with the #TwoPartyStrategy of #SNP1SGP2 or #SNP1Greens2 NOT #BothVotesSNP, we can avoid that scenario quite comfortably.
Whatever way you try to cut it, this is screwing the Indy movement out of having more MSPs and could even lose us the pro-indy majority if things go badly between now and May 7th. #SNP1SGP2 would maintain the majority with ease.
So much for the pro-indy SNP.
So, you complain about trusting the SGP, despite all the above, I'm still promoting #SNP1SGP2, because it the best outcome for independence supporters right now.
But I doubt it will be come 2031, and maybe not even at GE2029.
You can blame the SNP & the blinkered likes of youself for that.
By average of most recent polling #SNP1SGP2 is more likely to be successful in all regions, even the Highlands. Only exception may be Edinburgh Central where I believe Greens lead SNP on constituency, so #SGP1SGP2 there.
To be clear, the other 11 times (12 now) the #SNP did not get a majority & only 1/14 14 did the SNP poll for any list seats - one. That's not stopping RefUK.

Constituency Vote? List Vote? How to maximise pro-indy MSPs and minimise unionist MSPS. The voting system used in Scottish general elections was explicitly set up by the Labour UK government in 1998* to prevent an SP majority in the Scottish Parliament. It is split into two votes.. constituency votes seats, whilst the Conservatives and Labour together won only 10 seats. However, due to their constituency vote success, the SP's 956,000 list votes were 'devalued' by the system and won • a Constituency vote similar to Westminster's 'First Past The Post' (FPTP) system (deciding 73 Holyrood seats). • and a Regional, or List vote, which uses the "Additional Member System' to select extra MSPs from a party list (deciding 56 Holyrood seats). A party may stand for list seats only if it wishes. The system is designed to ensure that the more constituency seats a party wins, the more their list votes are 'devalued' and the harder it becomes for it to win list seats. By contrast, the value of list votes for parties that win fewer constituency seats is increased. In the 2016 election, for example, the SNP won 59 of the 73 them only 4 additional list MSPs, whilst the Conservatives' and Labour's combined list votes - only 4,000 more votes - got them 45 additional list MSPs. How to maximise your pro-indy votes in May 2026 ... Assuming that the SNP continues to poll well on the constituency vote, the best way to maximise your pro-indy votes and reduce the number of Unionist MSPs is to give your regional list vote to the Scottish Greens who are best placed in all* regions to increase pro-indy list seats - vote SNP1/SGP2. * In rare circumstances where the SNP and Scottish Greens compete for a constituency, vote for whichever holds the lead - Leader1/SGPZ.

1. You don't need list votes as a constituency MSP & to "continue that work".
2. The SNP are polling for zero list seats, so they'll be wasted.

An occasional reminder that even if the SNP were not polling for zero list seats, we would still get more pro-indy MSPs by voting #SNP1SGP2 NOT #BothVotesSNP.
Polling for zero list seats just makes it more stark.
The SGP would have to get almost as many FPTP MSPs as the SNP for that to change.
No. The Scottish Greens are the ONLY pro-indy party that can do well on the list vote. Meanwhile, the SNP CONTINUOUSLY poll for ZERO list seats.
