Alex Salmond's SNP are now the biggest party in Scotland
The SNP has surged to historic victory over Labour and become the Scottish Parliament's largest party on a gloomy final election day for Tony Blair.
The Scottish election, marred by huge problems with voting systems, showed "that the wind of change is blowing", according to SNP leader Alex Salmond.

I'm not sure what that means for that parties central theme of Scottish Independence....I know the idea of getting out from under England and the Queen/King has never died in Scotland but I don't know how serious the SNP is on that anymore.
We shall see.
