We're less than a fortnight away from the Scottish Parliament elections.

While an SNP overall majority is possible, I don't think it's the most likely outcome. It will mostly come down to the constituencies, and many of those are simply too close to call. If they do break the SNP's way, any majority could happen on a 30% vote share. So much for proportional representation.

Polls in the #Gorton and #Denton by-election open in less than 15 minutes.

This should normally be a safe Labour seat. But Reform UK and the Green Party are trying to cause an upset. Will either succeed?
