Polls show Nigel Farage's party on course to win first Scottish seats in next year's elections.

Reform is picking up support in Scotland on populist rather than nationalist messaging.

It wants to be Scotland ’s Vote Here To Give the Lot of Them A Bloody Nose Party.

Scottish nationalists gained elite acceptance long before its English counterpart.

Almost one in ten Reform supporters say they backed Labour last July .

Reform will not secure a single constituency, but its support still plans to give it both their votes.

In some polls it is doing better on constituency voting than the regional ballot.

Right-leaning Unionists, who have hitherto voted Labour in Westminster and Holyrood elections to keep the SNP out, are abandoning tactical voting.
