Labour is breathing down the neck of the Scottish National Party and is on course to become the largest Scottish party at Westminster for the first time in more than a decade.

In this documentary we spoke to voters in East Kilbride, a bellwether Scottish seat, to find out why the once imperious nationalist party seems to be losing its grip north of the border before the general election.

"I can't understand why you let someone else rule your land, cap in hand"

@@thedrinkinggamemaker9749 Sad really, cap in hand for what is already ours, that's really sad.

Under the snp free prescription medicines, extra payments for the sick, disabled and carers, free higher education, free bus travel for under 21s, no bedroom tax, will all be taken away by any other party coming to power.

[@user-sf7kl9uh7k]

Good, Scotland can't afford it!!!

[@benusmaximus3601]

Yeah I wonder who’s paying for all that…

[@Hamish2016]

Good about time Scotland stopped giving away free stuff for votes these things all have to be paid for

[@TARZANswings]

@@benusmaximus3601 Who do you think pays for it,

[@TARZANswings]

@user-sf7kl9uh7k You think Scotland can't afford all that, how's that ?.

[@GraemeWight-wx3xz]

Ah, the snp. The party that just sat there as they were insulted by jumped up humzay yousy

[@johncrawford8214]

SNP are done rotten to the core

[@colinmacfarlane6838]

Why isn't humza yousaf helping out in the campaign? Oh I forgot!

[@user-ru7lw2xh1k]

My friend, Humzar Youse-Aff is working on the tills, in his Cash and Carrys. Its the "Summer Sale". Y Fronts coming doon. Rain Mags being opened, ladies panties 2 for 1. If your passing his Cash & Carry, pop in.

[@graemeross1998]

I hope they loose seats it might shake them up and if not theyll keep loosing

[@taxidude]

Something will happen in the next parliament where Starmer will be forced to choose between Scotland and England for some contract or other and it will all change back. We’ve seen it all before. Besides, there are very few true SNP supporters. The ones they had would have been natural Scottish Labour supporters until that party sold us out.

[@nervousheadache]

No.

[@SiLoMixMaster]

Yes.

[@jeanetteeftekhar6762]

Not with what Rachel Reeves is doing now?

[@JohnM...]

The woman (?) in the pink hat going on about the state of the NHS….which is completely DOWN TO THE SNP!!!!

[@user-ou7to8nd7g]

Yeah austerity and the tories played no part in the NHS

[@annemoncrieff3875]

I suggest u go and learn how govny works and interrelatikn with westminster and how Scottish money is sent there and little returned. Scots shld have voted outright snp this time to show little engksnd we have had enough but no they fell for the labour line of their vite needed to get tories out strange tories managed without the Scottish vote therefore so ckd Labour.

[@JohnM...]

@@annemoncrieff3875 are you AWARE of the shithole that is Scotland, and how the SMP is ENTIRELY RESPONSIBLE? - examples: not passing on Covid relief money to businesses (GIVEN TO THEM BY WESTMINSTER), running down the state of the NHS, entirely a DEVOLVED matter (when, again, they received money from Westminster)? Another example: Sauchehall Street in Glasgow is a dump, with DOZENS of closed businesses where once it had a thriving cafe and restaurant scene; the fact that the street still looks like a building site nearly a WHOLE YEAR after ‘work started’ (I’ve been in the many times, and haven’t seen ANY work going on. When are you going to stop this garbage about ‘we give them tons of money and only get a little back’? These people have ‘spent’ (?) HALF A BILLION POUNDS….on 2 - TWO!!!! ferries - which we all know will never sail. Do you know what the phrase ‘jam tomorrow’ means? Because that’s EXACTLY what the SNP have been promising for 10 years under Sturgeon etc.

[@rmac8737]

I don't think you understand how the money works, what Scotland pays in and gets back is controlled by uk government. They purposefully give very little back to keep us all under the boot of Westminster . We need out if you want better NHS and all round better life

[@TARZANswings]

Really, have you seen the state of the nhs down south, Scotland had the best performing nhs in the uk, so what does that say about Westminsters funding for the nhs, the tories were trying to sell it off, privatising it, oh they are well and truly to blame.

[@geoman8912]

Iv alread sent in my postal vote...SNP out..16yrs and we are worse off..nothing has gotten better under the snp..

[@margaretwyatt6689]

Me aldo

[@TARZANswings]

Nothing has got any better under the snp, you mean like free prescription medicines, free higher education, free bus travel for under 21s, extra payments for the sick, disabled and carers, no bedroom tax, all under the snp, any other party coming into power will take the lot away.

[@annemoncrieff3875]

What a load of dirt. Go live in little engkand and see how bad it is there.

[@DM-le4yi]

SNP are a failed project

[@user-hy1wq6el2z]

SCOTLAND PLEASE VOTE REFORM!

[@JohnM...]

No. DO NOT. A vote for reform is a vote for the SNP. Don’t listen to anyone who says this.

[@jackrussell3755]

We don't do right wing parties in Scotland

[@shadowsdepression]

PLEASE VOTE REFORM THE SNP NEED VOTES 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@mmcc5846]

User please vote reform split the unionist vote and keep them out of power in Scotland forever

[@SiLoMixMaster]

@@jackrussell3755 And how has that turned out for you? Scotland is a disaster of high crime, damaged health care, bad transport, highest drug deaths in Europe and poor education. You kept voting for SNP year after year despite terrible results just because you wanted 'iNdEpEnDeNcE' from a country who subsidises Scotland and to be run by a bunch of incompetent, corrupt crooks like the SNP......but they were so incompetent that they couldn't even deliver the only thing they cared about 🤣🤣🤡🤡

[@garyh5541]

[@Jesus420.69]

Feel really sorry for the backpack woman. If she still can’t see the SNP have taken her for a fool she unlikely ever will.
