It is now in the Sunday Post. Wonder if the Sunday Mail will mention it?

I find this comment slightly perplexing

Quote:
But the Sky TV debate was overshadowed by news of another opinion poll confirming the SNP's lead over Labour.

Just noticed the Sunday Herald poll. It asks would independence work for Scotland.

80% say yes
20% say no

Cool Very Happy

do they actually print that poll in the paper or is it just an on-line poll?

SNP - 39% (constituency) 36% (list)
Labour - 34% (constituency) 25% (list)
Lib Dems - 11% (constituency) 13% (list)
Tories - 13% (constituency) 11% (list)
Others - 3% (constituency) 16% (list)

Quote:
Political expert Professor Bill Miller, from the University of Glasgow, calculated that the poll results would leave the SNP with 51 seats at Holyrood, followed by Labour on 44.

The Lib Dems would come in third with 16 seats, trailed by the Conservatives with 13, the Greens with four seats, and the SSP just one. He said: "This survey confirms the trend of other recent surveys.

"The finding is all the more significant because over the past year System Three polls have consistently been more favourable to Labour and less favourable to the SNP than other polls."

He added: "Now the pollsters all seem to be reaching similar conclusions and there is no longer any conflict of evidence."

It's nice to see them use someone other than John Curtice for their analysis. I've been thinking that he had gained something of a monopoly in the area.

I'd advise everyone here to join YOUGOV, you can vote on political polls and you even get paid for doing it!
