Holyrood is set up for coalition style governments, it's why it's ludicrous to have a pop at the SNP for not getting a majority in a system not designed to give them one.

If it wasn't for the list vote the other parties wouldn't be much of an opposition. The tories have half a dozen seats with FPTP all in sparsely populated, rural areas full of retired/wealthy people. They only want to disrupt the parliament and return to Westminster/scottish office.

Labour seem to have checked out completely as a functioning political party, and the Lib-dems are about to be even more invisible with Rennie going. Both of them chained to the deteriorating unionist vote.

So a partnership with the greens makes sense in the long run, it wont all be smooth sailing but hopefully it means innovative ideas on the environment and economy for the future.
