The SNP's current trajectory threatens its future; senior figures stress the need for a fundamental purpose and policy rethink to avoid losing the next Holyrood election.
Many insiders warn if significant internal reforms and leadership direction aren't undertaken soon, the SNP risks further electoral failures, particularly against a resurgent Labour party.
A former MP stated, 'What does an SNP that has learned its lesson look and sound like? I don't think it's possible to overstate the scale of the challenge we are facing as a party.'
The party faces major hurdles in countering Labour's compelling message of change, compounded by a previous scandal that has alienated voters, making a comeback challenging.
