Wikipedia is not a Gazetteer of Political Parties. Unlike their namesake, this Scottish Socialist Party has no notability which satisfies our policies, including the GNG principles for articles. Political parties are not automatically notable, particularly if they achieve nothing beyond standing for election which is to be expected of them. Article relies on one off-line reference. doktorb _words^deeds 20:48, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Not a significant party. The brief coverage of it in the Bill Kidd an Alex Wood articles would seem sufficient to me. That said, there might be a case for mentioning its existence (and that of other earlier groups named the Scottish Socialist Party) at Scottish Socialist Party Dunarc (talk) 21:25, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
