These videos are free, open resources originally created for the short course 'Scotland Wales Vote 2016: Understand the Devolved Elections' on FutureLearn. This course is no longer running, but you can still work through the resources in your own time using the videos in this channel.
2016 was an exciting year for elections in the United Kingdom. The Scottish Parliament and Welsh Assembly both have a significant impact on people’s lives in Scotland and Wales: they control big public policy issues like health, education and transport. A great deal has changed since the last devolved elections in 2011. Scotland has voted to remain in the United Kingdom, there is now a majority Conservative government, and there are plans for significant further devolution. What are the big issues at stake in these elections? How does the electoral system work? Why does Scotland have a stronger nationalist party than Wales? Can the SNP retain its majority? Can the Labour Party remain in power in Wales? This unique, real-time course responded to real world events and feedback from learners.
