Election Special: The Final Countdown
Manage episode 426702346 series 2362524
As we enter the last week of the General election campaign trail, Marlene and Fiona chat to Indy supporters at the Bannockburn rally - and find a mixed set of views!
We also consider what the turnout might be and whether people are sufficiently disenchanted with the election campaign that they will abstain, or spoil their ballots and what practical effect this has.
We spill the beans on the cost of that GB Energy logo!
We had a good chat with Bill Bonnar, the Scottish Socialist Party candidate standing in Rutherglen and asked just why smaller parties stand in first past the post elections they have no hope of winning. The John MacLean lecture we mentioned in the discussion is here https://youtu.be/F6xJPWf14K0?si=skAqf_WjxTydvE2A
