Poll Analysis: Panelbase 9th – 12th of April 2021

In a second post-Alba outing for Panelbase, they continue to be the outlier in finding notable levels of support, whilst the SNP fall short of a majority and Independence squeaks a narrow lead.

Poll Analysis: ComRes 2nd – 7th of April 2021

A slightly better result for the Lib Dems compared to other agencies, whilst the Conservatives fall back. An SNP majority is on a knife-edge, as is the evenly-split Independence question, and Alba languish on 3%.

Poll Analysis: Opinium 1st – 6th of April 2021

After an almost status quo debut, Opinium’s second poll indicates a big SNP majority, whilst Alba record their worst result since launching. Independence is still, you guessed it, on a knife-edge.

Poll Analysis: Ipsos MORI 29th of March – 4th of April 2021

In the third poll since Alba’s launch, they make barely a splash. Instead, the SNP could be on course for a large majority despite a much reduced list vote, whilst the Greens record a joint-best result of the term, and Labour bounce back from one of their lowest shares.

Poll Analysis: Panelbase 30th of March – 1st of April 2021

In the most eye-catching Scottish poll this Holyrood term, remarkably strong showings for Alba and All for Unity could see two new parties with seats in the chamber. A narrow SNP majority and equally narrow lead for Independence also feature.

Alba’s first appearance on the polling scene makes more of a ripple than a wave, whilst the issue of Independence is deadlocked at 50:50.

    Headline here is about Highland's licensing committee but one of these four, Wick and East Caithness Independent councillor Willie MacKay, has also quit as councillor entirely, continuing Highland Council's almost permanent election footing.

    By-Election Result: Peterhead South and Cruden

    Reform struggle in their strongest Holyrood patch, falling behind the Conservatives at the final stage against the ultimately victorious SNP.

    Looking forward to seeing the transfers on this one, because RUK + CON + IND RT + SFP is 53.3% for the Right, so in theory a path was there for RUK or CON win, but didn't happen.

    Pre-election some had suggested I may have been wrong to have the SNP included in my three-way tossup call; vindication!

    By-election today for Aberdeenshire's Peterhead South and Cruden ward. A historic SNP stronghold, in an area that swung hard to the Conservatives then Reform = not the easiest outcome to predict!
