'The SNP, who have never defeated Labour in a national election, have a decent chance of replacing their ancient enemy as Holyrood's largest party after next year's Scottish parliament election. The alarm bells have even begun to ring at Downing Street, where Jack McConnell recently warned the Prime Minister of the threat posed by the Nationalists.' Sunday Herald editorial, 18 th June 2006. |
