To be fair, we can't do it without the English.
While the SNP losses gave the Tories Scottish seats they couldn't have expected, Labour weren't able to take advantage overall, which is their fault. Labour would need to gain 60 seats to get a majority, that's every Tory marginal of less than 5,000. For me, it's much more likely to be a Labour/SNP coalition with the SNP getting another Independence Referendum as part of the bargain. Now, for me that's fine, but would Jeremy Corbyn want to be remembered as the man who brought about the break-up of the UK?
There'll be just as much acrimony and division as there is now, just coming from different directions.
