Without Jim Murphy standing for Labour, the Tories should be able to consolidate the anti SNP vote and win here

Conservative jump from one to eight seats in the local election in Renfrewshire, while Labour lost 11 of their 24 seats. While the gaps are too large for them to make up in the other Renfrewshire seats, that is certainly not the case here. If they can replicate their local election gain, it is entirely possible for them to leapfrog Labour to beat SNP.

From the Guardian after May 5th local elections: 'Party strategists said some of the results suggested the SNP would face a tough battle to hold on to some of the 56 Westminster seats it won in 2015 in June?s general election. Labour was delighted by its result in East Lothian, one of its few target seats in June, and Tory hopes of winning rural seats were buoyed by strong results in Stirling, the Borders and the north-east. In East Renfrewshire, a key general election target seat, they took 15,588 first preference votes against 9,886 for the SNP.'
