YouGov 53% YES

Unionists in utter disarray as second poll of the day shows a sizeable pro-independence majority


Should Scotland be an independent country? (ComRes)

Yes 54%
No 46%

I wish you well Tommy but as you will be the first to agree, it is a case of step 1 steal the underpants, step three take over the world. The tricky bit will be step 2, which involves getting the Tartan Warriors off their arses and into the polling booths.

Independence is backed by unprecedented 55-45 margin in new Panelbase poll - and that's "decisive" if every BBC report in 2014 is to be believed
As I pointed out last week, the 53% Yes vote in the YouGov poll couldn't be directly compared with the 54% in the two most recent Panelbase polls, because each firm has its own methods. And the thought did cross my mind that the 57% SNP vote found by YouGov - higher than any other firm has reported since the 2016 election - might be a clue that things have actually improved further, rather than stayed steady or gone slightly backwards. Today's latest Panelbase poll for Business for Scotland, showing Yes reaching a new high watermark, might well support that theory.

Should Scotland be an independent country?

Yes 55% (+1)
No 45% (-1)

It has been very quiet in thissubforum recently so I thought I'd just mention the latest Scottish Opinion Poll. The last 3 have put YES in the lead. However they were all from Panelbase. The Times, which uses YouGov, published their latest offering this week and it confirms the Panelbase findings.
Could this be the real thing? Are we getting closer to our ultimate goal? Who knows, For now I'll accept that things are going our way!!!  https://docs.cdn.yougov.com/l0arqcm4ea/TimesResults_200810_ScotlandV2_W.pdf

Could be. I wish you well, although I agree with John that the tricky bit will be to turn the polls into actual votes. So step one will be to get Tommy out of the pub and onto the doorstep to drum up support for Wee Krankie.

Maybe you are.

But the world in general has seen a movement to telling pollsters one thing, and doing something quite different in the poll booth.

Whether those seeking to blow the explosive bolts on Scotland are among that playful cohort is something only the real referendum would reveal.
