Record View believes the First Minister should be given time to assemble a new coalition in the Scottish Parliament.
The need for a UK general election as soon as possible is clear – and Keir Starmer is right to demand it.
There is a credible alternative with Starmer ready to step in at No10. The Shadow Cabinet is full of serious politicians ready to take charge. Given the clamour for a UK election, it’s understandable Scots are wondering whether now is the time for a Holyrood poll as well. The next Holyrood election isn’t due until 2026. But given events of the last week, there is a real chance it could take place in the coming months.
Anas Sarwar has made great strides as Scottish Labour leader but he’d have to admit they’d be unlikely to win a huge majority in a new Holyrood vote.
