Talk:List of MPs for constituencies in Scotland (1983–1987)

Alliance MPs

Would it be worth further breaking this down to show which Alliance MPs were Liberals and which were SDP, particularly as Scotland was a 5-3 split (unlike England where the SDP members were vastly outnumbered by Liberals? Also the Alliance was not a party as such, but an electoral alliance, so this might be more accurate. For example the list could say:

Constituency	MP	Party	Notes
Caithness and Sutherland	Robert Maclennan	Alliance (SDP)
Roxburgh and Berwickshire	Archy Kirkwood	Alliance (Liberal)

I have gone ahead and made the change to the table, but am happy to discuss further if anyone does not think it is an improvement. Dunarc (talk) 19:03, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
