First Minister John Swinney's prediction of a possible SNP majority in 2026 was deemed unrealistic by Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar.
First Minister John Swinney was accused by Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar of deceiving supporters by asserting that the SNP can secure a majority in the 2026 Scottish Parliament election.
Sarwar called this prospect unrealistic because of the electoral system and Swinney's low public profile.
Noting that even Nicola Sturgeon was unable to win a majority despite better polling, Sarwar attacked Swinney's leadership for lacking vigor and new ideas.
He stressed that the forthcoming election should concentrate on Scottish issues like schools, hospitals, and transport rather than UK-wide politics, dismissing Swinney's call for a majority to start another independence referendum as baseless.
Sarwar urged voters to evaluate Scotland's government based on its own performance and emphasized that Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves are not seeking the position of First Minister.
Swinney defended his administration, claiming it has the vision and drive to bring about change and is still committed to public priorities.
