Scottish National Party plans to cut staff by 40% to stabilize finances before 2026 election.

The Scottish National Party (SNP) plans to cut headquarters staff from 26 to 16 to streamline operations and ensure financial stability ahead of the 2026 Holyrood election. This move follows their recent defeat in the general election, losing most of their MPs and significant funding. The party aims to create a more efficient, election-winning organization and will consult staff on a voluntary redundancy scheme. The SNP faces competition from a resurgent Labour Party as it works to maintain its power in Scotland.
