The SSP is Scotland’s socialist party that stands for the transformation of society. We fight to replace capitalism with socialism; an economic system based on social need and environmental protection rather than private profit and ecological destruction.

Times Poll Says SSP To Win Six Seats

In terms of seats Labour would have 58, two more than they achieved in 1999. The SNP would have 38, three more than in 1999. The Tories would have 13 (down five), the Lib Dems 12 (down five), the Scottish Socialists six (up five).

The biggest winner in terms of recognition is Tommy Sheridan, the charismatic leader of the Scottish Socialists. Only 9 per cent say they have never heard of him — 4 per cent less than Mr McConnell.
