  1. I find it hard to believe your 8/9 figures for when the wards were last contested.

    The 8 wards are all in England or Wales, but the SNP still get a figure!

    Are the SNP putting up candidates outside Scotland now?

    1. Thank you for taking the time to reply. The first set of figures including SNP was for when the elections were last held 9 of 9 . so includes SNP the next two figs were 8 of 9 so didn't . hope this makes sense.
