Britain’s Election: All Eyes on Scotland in Knife-Edge Vote
All eyes will be on Scotland on Thursday as the Scottish National Party (SNP) looks set for a landslide victory north of the border in Britain’s general election, a result that could hand it the role of kingmaker.
SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon said the vote could be a “watershed” where Scots reject Labour, the party that has represented them for generations, fundamentally altering the balance of power in British politics.
“The weather may be a wee bit dreich (miserable) in Edinburgh this morning but the outlook for Scotland is sunny – very sunny,” she told a final campaign event on Wednesday surrounded by cheering supporters.
Across Britain, Thursday’s vote remains too close to call, with Prime Minister David Cameron’s Conservatives and the opposition Labour party neck and neck in the opinion polls.
