Rutherglen and Hamilton West

This is considered a marginal Labour/SNP seat. Labour won this seat at the last election with a majority of 265 over the SNP candidate. The Tories have no chance of getting in here, so strategically, it does not matter whether you vote Labour or SNP in this particular constituency. By voting Labour, you are indicating your support for a Corbyn government in Westminster. By voting SNP, you are indicating your support for a party with even stronger policies on all the important issues of this election, especially on the issue of nuclear weapons, where SNP is firmly in support of abolition. A vote to survive in this constituency is a vote for either Labour or SNP!
