Alasdair Allan MSP has congratulated Angus MacNeil on “an outstanding result for an outstanding local MP” following the SNP’s victory in Na h-Eileanan an Iar.
Alasdair Allan commented:
“This morning’s result in the islands is tribute to the work Angus has put in for the last ten years, both in the islands and in Westminster – and I offer my warmest congratulations.
“The result is the highest majority achieved by any party in a Westminster election since Donald Stewart’s win in the autumn of 1974.
“It comes on a morning when the SNP looks set to sweep the board across Scotland. Although only the second seat to be declared, it is clear that constituencies throughout the country are endorsing the SNP’s positive vision for Scotland, and delivering an unprecedented result.
“The islands’ voice is going to be heard at Westminster- and so is Scotland’s.”
