Built on fishing and oil, Scotland has been traditional tricky terrain for Britain’s ruling Conservative Party, which has not won a general election there since the 1950s.
But it is his rival, Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, who has won the coveted endorsement of the Scottish Conservatives’ leader Ruth Davidson, who is weary of the prospects of Britain splitting away from the EU without any plans for what happens next. Prior to meeting some of the 160,000 party members who will ultimately decide the name of the next British leader, Hunt promised on Friday to deliver a boost to the region’s main drink, whisky, by securing “a good Brexit deal”.
But Hunt might be helped by Scottish apprehensions of Johnson’s main campaign promise — to get Britain out of the EU, deal or no deal, without any further delays. Scotland already held one such vote in September 2014, which the pro-union camp won with 55 percent. But that was before Brexit — and Johnson.
“It would seem that the Brexit impasse has motivated some Remain supporters in recent months to re-evaluate their attitudes towards the union,” said John Curtis, a polling expert and professor Glasgow’s Strathclyde University.
