    Funny aint it. SNP came to power on the back of Scotland never influencing the UK government. Now have given the UK a Tory government.

    Didn't go plan there did it Scotland?

    If anyone remember's Major's majority Government of 1 seat, and MPs being dragged in from their deathbeds to get a vote through, then anyone who thinks we now have a Tory Government will be pleasantly surprised.

    I think we are in for amusing times, and part of me hope May sticks around for it. It will be brutal.

    I think you are confusing Major with either Callaghan or Wilson. Major never had a majority of one seat.

    It was a very slender majority at the end of 1996/7. I remember Betty Bothroyd had to vote with the Government once as Speaker.
