End of an era SNP: Labor Party in Scotland reaches the level

The Labor Party achieved 35 percent support in the poll, its highest since 2014.

An era of SNP dominance in Scotland appears to be dawning after a poll showed Labor stood a chance of winning the same number of seats in next year's general election after a dramatic change in support.

Survation Poll, conducted by public relations agency True North predicted that both the SNP and the Labor Party would win 24 seats north of the border, greatly bolstering Sir Keir Starmer's hopes of becoming prime minister.

This would mean the Scottish National Party would lose half of the 48 seats it won in the 2019 general election. The Labor Party has made a significant return to Scotland after winning just one seat last time.

The Labor Party received 35 per cent support in the poll, its highest level since 2014 and just two points behind the Scottish National Party (SNP) with a 37% rating, while the Tories are 17% behind.

Sir John Curtis, the British leader and eminent psychologist, said: «If the Labor Party wins two dozen seats in Scotland, you can probably cut the four-point lead over the Conservatives that the Labor Party will need in the whole of Britain to achieve an absolute majority.»< /p> Labor equals Scottish nationalists

Another major blow to the SNP was that First Minister Humza Yusuf received a net voter approval rating of -22, the difference between the number of people who like him and dislike him.

< p>Sir John compared his low rating. popularity with Liz Truss when she became prime minister. He was only slightly more popular than Douglas Ross, leader of the Scottish Tories (-26), and well behind Anas Sarwar, leader of the Scottish Labor Party (-3).

Voters also expressed growing dissatisfaction with the SNP agreement about power-sharing with the Scottish Greens in Holyrood after a series of controversial environmental policies.

The majority of people in Scotland now no longer support the deal, with 40 per cent actively opposing it, including almost a quarter of the voters who supported the SNP in the 2019 general election.

This is more than when Survation last asked this question in May, when only 37 percent of the total voters – and 21 percent of the 2019 SNP voters opposed the deal.

However, support for independence remained at 48 percent, further evidence of a “decoupling” position voters on this issue with the support of the SNP.

Sir John said: “The SNP has had little success. still manage to shake the Labor Party off its tail. As a result, the party faces the constant risk of losing a significant number of Westminster seats in next year's UK general election.

The party's efforts appear to be hampered by Humza Yousaf's apparent difficulty in achieving a favorable outcome. impression on the Scottish public.»

Dr Eilid Whiteford, Truth of the North party councilor and former Scottish National Party MP, said the poll showed «Scotland is on a knife edge and in what was once a well-established Scottish significant changes may occur in the political landscape.”

She added: «Public ambivalence about the SNP-Scottish Green Party cooperative agreement is likely to only increase calls in some quarters for a renegotiation of the agreement.»

Andrew Liddle, another firm adviser and former Scottish Labor adviser, said: «This poll provides further evidence that the Scottish Labor Party is finally rebuilding in Scotland after more than a decade in the wilderness.»

The poll also showed that the party's pro-independence parties, the Scottish National Party and the Greens, lose their combined majority in the Holyrood elections. He predicted that the Scottish National Party would remain the largest party in the Scottish Parliament with 49 seats, while the Labor Party would fall behind with 42 seats.
