Hardly an accurate snapshot of voting intentions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colkitto Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 The Times propaganda story with the manipulated Yougov poll which headlined today in their newspaper seems to have been over shadowed by the Scottish Social Attitudes survey which shows support for Independence at it's highest level ever!

The YouGov poll has to be the biggest red herring in ages. I guarantee that a lot of people who said the result would be No are Yes supporters - some people will be naturally pessimistic after last time.

HoBNob Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I still don't think we'll win it, I'm unsure if I'll be able to vote either tbh. Scotland needs a long, cold winter and expensive gas and electric prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjw Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Less of the negativity you.It's ages away and we're at a decent level of support already! Prof Curtice was on TV saying its in Westminster's interest to get it done soon as the demographic might change to far in favour of a Yes vite.

I started working in England in 2014, the only time anyone takes any interest in the referendum down here is to rip the utter pish out Scotland, if/when we lose again it could quite possibly make it worse. A dreadful thought. It is difficult as such to then grasp how optimistic/pessimistic everyone is regarding it, I just feel we have allot of ground to make up and I can't see that many people changing their mind. I was taking the piss a bit with regards to the cold winter chat, but we're never going to convince the oaps to switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was taking the piss a bit with regards to the cold winter chat, but we're never going to convince the oaps to switch. I worked in London for 10 years. Its a bit of an eye opener in many ways. a) the amount of stick u get for being Scottish...far more than I have ever seen or have dished out to any englander in Scotland b) the amount of proper doleys that inhabit the place. There are far more workshy than we could ever imagine in Scotland c) The amount of public money that is spent on constantly improving the place. Unbelievable we have had to wait decades for a new forth bridge, squabble over the cost of the Edi trams and are still waiting on the A9 duelling. Cash is to splash in London. Travel broadens the mind indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandarilla Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Disappointing, but we'd have bitten the hand off them as a starting point for Indyref1. I'm not worried. That's an incredibly positive spin. After brexit a boost was expected. It hasn't appeared yet, and with all the publicity this week? Worrying. Sturgeon and co have such a tricky balancing act to pull this off. They've done very well so far - but a poll like this suggests we've gained no ground over brexit.

Unless I'm reading it wrong, (quite possible) there's also an Opininum/Observer poll published today that has yes/no 49/51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
