Ok. Letโ€™s do that. SNP + Greens took 49% of the vote and 72 MSPs between them in 2021. On Thursday their combined share of vote was 41% but they ended up with one more MSP between them โ€” 73. So combined share of vote down 8 percentage points. Hardly momentum for independence. And itโ€™s share of the vote that matters in a referendum. Nor does one more MSP for independence change anything. There was a majority of MSPs for independence before Thursday. Much good did it do them. So whatโ€™s new? Nor does anyone seriously think combining Green and SNP MSPs a serious basis for claiming independence. Even Nicola Sturgeon acknowledged it wasnโ€™t. Even more so now โ€” the Green manifesto for Thursday did not include independence. So itโ€™s no mandate for independence.
Replying to @afneil
You have to include the Greens and other Independence parties in the momentum. You cannot just look at the SNP.
