Alliance MPs[edit]

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)[reply]
