Looking at the election map

[andrewducker]

The Conservatives really, really should be taking an interest in The West Lothian Question.  And the other parties should be staggeringly interested in PR.

Because England is resoundingly Tory when it comes to seats, but not when it comes to votes.

Is Scotland really that much less conservative than Britain?

[andrewducker]

From that page:
England:
Con: 40%
Lab: 28%
LD: 24%

Scotland:
Con: 16%
Lab: 42%
Lib: 18%
SNP: 19%

Scottish Nationalists aren't in England, obviously. But are lefter-wing than The Conservatives. So Scotland are less conservative than England, and somewhat more Liberal in some ways, but not in others.

Why did you use a small c on conservative here and a big L on liberal. Does it have any signficance?

[andrewducker]

Nope, just typing at high speed. I put a capital C on Conservatives on the previous line.
