Abstract
Shambles, drama, suspense . . . the 2007 Scottish parliament election had it all. There was the fiasco of more than 140,000 spoiled ballot papers, the intrigue of whether Scotland really was marching on to independence, and the cliffhanger of the final result when the SNP beat Labour by just one seat That alone was history the first time Labour had foiled to win the biggest haul of seats and votes in Scotland since 19SS. So too was the aftermath the first Scottish National Party government in British political history. True, it was a minority government, but it was a government with the keys to Bute and St Andrews House nonetheless. How this came about will be the subject of much research and debate for years to come.
