2026 Holyrood election if it used the D'hondt method. (Wales system). 120 seats, 12 constituencies of 10 MSPs, votes based on the list votes not constituency

SNP 32
RFM 23
LAB 20
GRN 18
CON 16
LDM 11

SNP short 29 of a majority
Unionist majority of 20.

Vastly different result from just a different system of PR....

How to save fuel ⛽️ in the times of energy crises?

Buy a new bicycle & get rewarded with good health, economic benefits & help environment.

Recently the law was changed to allow LIFE sentencing for a cyclist who kills a pedestrian. An extremely rare occurrence.

Meanwhile ... Just 4 years for this drug-fuelled woman ...

(Last 12 months, Killed by Cyclist, 1, Killed by drunk/high car drivers, 357)

The new Scottish Parliament seating plan.
Lumps the Tories in with Reform, Greens with SNP and Lib Dems with Labour.

Clearly we need to ask serious questions of ourselves in the Labour Party following recent results, but the answer to those questions is not Wes Streeting

[Jack McConnel - Dumfries & Galloway @jackmcconnelDG]

Best bit of news all week. Huge congratulations to @donaldlabour.

It is a public good to have people living, working & thriving in places like Na h-Eileanan an Iar and D&G.

A pure free market & centralising nationalism prevents that. Really pleased for Donald & his constituents

[Karl Turner MP @KarlTurnerMP]

This will make the electorate that wanted to be represented by hard working Labour councillors, our emotionally broken @UKLabour activists, former councillors and party workers feel much better. 🌹

This video has got to be a parody surely?

Together, we will build a stronger and fairer Britain.

[Matthew Brown @MatthewBrownLab]

This has been the toughest set of elections @prestonlabour has faced for decades and out of the 8 seats we defended we held half. All brilliant Labour women🌹.

So gutted for comrades we lost caught up in forces outside their control which is no reflection on their hard work, talent and dedication.

We remain the largest party by far with 22 seats out of 48 and I am confident our administration will continue with the radical zeal we are known for.

The humble bicycle is a wonder drug that doesn't even require a prescription.

Reduce heart disease, cancers, diabetes, stroke, and dementia.

Bike more, live better, and live longer.

[Michael Shanks MP @mgshanks]

Outstanding - a formidable MSP and Deputy Leader and a hard worker for Dumbarton. 🙌

[Carol Mochan MSP @CMochan]

All parties need to do better, we can’t accept turnouts below 50% as the norm.

[Laura McConnell @LauraFMcConnell]

INCREDIBLE news! I am not sure that there is anyone who loves Glasgow more than Paul!
There is nobody like him defending the city’s architectural heritage and he is always on the side of justice for his community.
An asset to the Scottish Parliament! ✊🌹

[Carol Mochan MSP @CMochan]

I am delighted to return as one of your MSPs for South Scotland after a tough election for my party.

It is important we reflect on what the electorate are telling us and seek to understand this result.

I look forward to representing this great region at Holyrood again.
