[edit] Requested move

Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party → Scottish Conservative Party — the party hardly ever uses the Unionist in its title and makes no mention of it on its website [[1]Barry O'Brien entretien 05:15, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion
- Add any additional comments:
- AFAIAA their candidates use the full, legal title - "Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party" - on ballot papers, which is a fairly fundamental location: all their representatives are thus elected under that banner. Can anyone confirm/disprove/shed further light on usage on ballot papers? Is this now discontinued? When and why? What are candidates using on 3 May? --Mais oui! 07:35, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
- Im not sure if they dropped it when Dave was rebranding them as a nice party but there seems to be no mention of the title on either the Scottish or the British websites and they are always referred to as the Scottish Tories in the press and the British party is at its most common name rather than its offical one (Conservative and Unionist Party) --Barry O'Brien entretien 13:55, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
