no, they only have scottish candidates
but you can "help" them by voting labour.

i thought it was worth having them there to see miliband's face when he was asked if labour intend to match their pledge to buy scottish votes in wales.

They still effect us as a nation, as a hung parliament looks likely a coalition government will probably be inevitable.
The SNP will hold a lot of sway if they go into a coalition with Labour, so their policies and opinions should really effect peoples choices.

i wish there was a sensible way we could vote per policy, rather than per party
then we could vote for exactly what we want to happen in respect of education, nhs, environment, blah blah.

as it is, you realise that none of the parties match your wishes, scrabble around for the nearest fit, only for them to break the promises as soon as they get elected.

People struggle to come out and vote once every five years.
Aint nobody gonna bother with the daily trite decisions of government.

Which is why the country's fucked
majority have "doesn't affect me so don't care" attitude. Until it does affect them, by which time it's too late.

I don't disagree with this. But voting on every policy is too much choice.
What we should do right, is vote for a local representative to do it all for us.

Problem is very few of them are "local"
Some don't even live in the area they represent, and most do whatever the national party whips office tells them

If they're just following the party then they need kicking out.

Perhaps we could have a text vote on everything? Just like the X Factor.
