Party leaders

[edit]

Should we use the Scottish party leaders' photos for the infobox? I know that this was a UK General Election, but the parties' Scottish leaders were probably bigger players than May/Corbyn/Farron, etc. Cooltrainer Hugh (talk) 17:59, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Personally, I think we should use the Scottish leaders in the infobox. The Scottish leaders were a big part of the general election campaign in Scotland and I think they should be in the infobox instead. Ciaran.london (talk) 22:01, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
