Stephen Flynn: self-inflicted wounds' and fringe policies cost SNP election
Briefly

Stephen Flynn stated that the SNP lost the trust of voters due to repeated crises and a focus on fringe policies rather than issues that resonated with the public.
He emphasized that Labour's crisp and clear message of change resonated with voters who wanted to get rid of the Tories, leading to their victory in Scotland.
Activists expressed immense frustration with the SNP leadership's communication strategy during the election and the party's ongoing scandals, which they felt went unaddressed.
Members were particularly upset by significant spending cuts that affected public services, like the free bus travel scheme for asylum seekers, amid rising tensions in England.
