After nearly a year’s absence, YouGov have finally re-emerged with an absolute peach of a Scottish poll. All three parliaments plus the first proper Independence VI since December, making it almost worth the wait. […]
Two Scottish polls along at once? Who would have thought it! Ah, right, everyone, because it keeps happening. […]
The election no one expected is officially going ahead. With a Brexit extension until Halloween, the UK is obliged to elect MEPs to the European Parliament. A total of 49 candidates are standing for 8 parties or as independents, compared to 54 candidates across 9 parties in 2014. […]
