PS, I have never met or had any contact whatsoever with the SNP candidate but she's got me blocked.

Voters in Rutherglen and Hamilton, remember one thing, Labour will 100% stab you in the back. #ByElection #RutherglenandHamilton #Scotland

So is the upcoming by-election in Rutherglen & Hamilton a de-facto referendum on "independence" as
@_humzayusuf has said all future elections would be?

If so, and @theSNP lose, will they pack up and leave politics to people who care more about the Scottish people than they care about flags?
