Turns out I'm an idiot and Flavible do let you select Scotland Only, different story from them and the others.
Interesting that it suggests Paisley and Renfrewshire stays SNP, with Black saying she’s stepping down I think it has a real chance of going to Labour.
I have a feeling (because I know nothing) that EC and PrincipleFish either use a uniform swing approach or a very lightly weighted model, where as Flavible and EC have an actual weighted model but even then the models can't really account for the pull of an individual MP and their....electoral inertia?
Paisley is a real Labour target but Mhairi's majority is big enough that it isn't caught by uniform swings and the weighted models aren't picking it up on these numbers probably/possibly because the model isn't updated with he rnot standing...or, the weighting for incumbent MP and/or popular incumbent MP is basically a finger in the air educated guess from the model creator, which isn't really a model.
But what do I know
Changes in vote share barely correlating with seat changes will never not be depressing.
It is Redfield and Wilton. They always post a more Tory biased result than anyone else whenever there is an election due.

Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
