Given that the Labour vote has collapsed in Scotland this GE has become a straight fight between the SNP and the Conservatives, many former, often life long, Labour supporters find themselves between a rock and a hard place. Should they swallow their long standing anathema to the SNP, Labour's major competitors for votes for the last 20 odd years or do the previously unthinkable and vote Conservative.
The Tories appear to be basing their campaign in Scotland entirely on their opposition to a second referendum, giving no firm promises or concrete plans for anything to Scotlan's advantage e.g. support for the Fishing Industry post Brexit or lowering the iniquitous charges for putting power generated in Scotland on to the grid.
Meanwhile the SNP are concentrating on providing a left of centre, powerful voice for Scotland (and the vulnerable across the UK) e,g, leading the struggle for the WASPI women, attacking the 2 child/rape Clause legislation, in a hostile hard right Westminster.
What should socialist or centre left voters do? Vote Tory to protect the Union, or SNP whose policies are more in tune with their own priorities?
