Anas Sarwar said the next Scottish election will be between SNP and labor. Scottish Politics

An absurd Anas Sarwar said the surprise victory of the New Scottish Labour Party proved that “the SNP’s balloon has broken” after popular local candidate Davy Russell violated the predictions of defeating the current nationalists.

Sarwar said at a victory rally in downtown Hamilton on Friday morning that they proved everyone’s mistake after speculating that Britain might push Scottish labor to third place, as the right-wing populist party won for the first time in Scotland, while state supporters of Scottish Labor Party faced unpopular Westminster policies.

"The reality is that we prove that pollsters, experts, political commentators and gamblers are all wrong, and they don't understand what's going on on the ground," Saval said. "On the ground, people think SNP is done. The balloons are broken, people think they're a broken wash, and they want them out."

He added that by-election results for people across Scotland show that only Scottish Labour can beat SNP in 2026.

"Reforms can make noise. The Conservatives didn't even compete. It was a direct choice between SNP and Scottish labor," Sarwar said.

While continuing to condemn the reform’s “dirty movement”, it involves increasing personal attacks by Nigel Farage on him, which are condemned by racism, and Sarwar also attacks “SNP’s spin, nonsense and misleading.” He said they tried to propose a race as an attempt to compete between the SNP and the reform, risking pushing voters to the right-wing populists.

New, but Sweeney denied that, insisting that his campaign messaging was informed by what voters told him. "People tell us about their anger and frustration at the Labor Party," he told reporters at the Edinburgh Party headquarters.

New “but also the same meetings as people plan to vote for reforms at their doorstep. The convergence of these two things means I have to say that our information about SNP can be stopped. I certainly don't want to import French toxic politics into the Scottish Parliament. ”

New Sweeney also claimed his party had made progress in by-election. “It’s not as much as I wish we did, but we’ve made progress against the backdrop of really harmful (general) elections last summer.”

Despite the third place reform, the party received a 26% vote share - a significant success for an infrastructure expansion north of the border without the infrastructure of dedicated Scottish leaders. This reflects this level of support in the recent double heads of the Central Leader Committee.

Many of its votes appear to be from a collapse of conservative support, falling from 18% in 2021 to 6% yesterday, but SNP also lost nearly 17% of the vote share when Labor dropped 2%.

Sarwar suggests that three voters have undergone reforms – former conservatives, voters protesting against the current Westminster and Holyrood voters, and some believe “frankly, this is a direct choice between reform and SNP.”

At the rally, Mrs. Dame Jackie Baillie, deputy leader of Scottish labor, said the match was a defense of the party’s strategy, showing that “talking with people and working at the door is absolutely crucial for our victory”. Other Labor figures pointed out that the party had already consciously decided to focus on ground movements, which was largely invisible to the state media, but ultimately won.

The ground movement also gained opposition to the decisions of Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves, which some voters shouted at the door. Labor politicians who are helping the canvas say that locals have “a lot to get out of their chest” and require long-term involvement in the thought behind the unpopular Westminster decision, which seems to win many voters.
