I could be wrong but iam sure that every election Labour have won, they would still have won without the Scottish seats ?That is exactly it. Past UK Labour governments have relied heavily on the Scottish vote to form a UK government whereas the Tories never did, really. This is what makes it more difficult for Labour to get back in.
Ironic really when you think that Labour campaigned for devolution whereas the Tories were completely against it but devolution has bitten Labour on the bum really.
Losing sears in Wales is a big problem for Labour though, especially as they are not losing them to a nationalist vote
