There is certainly a risk that we end up with some form of Fianna Foil and Fianna Gael arrangement in Scotland, with two similar sets of ideologies grouped around two similar sets of mediocre politicians. In order to prevent this I think we should both stand for election.
The fringe parties holding the balance of power might make all the difference. What makes the Lib Dems pick one of the two social democratic parties? I imagine they would pick the one that had a more palatable agenda on localism, civil liberties and diversity.
