More bad polling news for the SNP has Labour nipping at their heels at Holyrood, whilst also failing to find an SNP lead for the first time in a standard Westminster poll since before the Independence Referendum. […]
Another poor poll for the SNP has them tied on the list vote with Labour, whilst the Greens and Lib Dems seemingly bounce back from a minor party squeeze. Despite the SNP’s troubles, the constitutional question is a near tie, with slight advantage to the Union. […]
This is a backdated “Lite” entry for the June 2023 edition of Scoop, to ensure there is no gap in the BBS archives. […]
The fourth outing in a monthly tracker stabilises a little bit, with a still very weak SNP benefitting from Labour’s surge stalling, whilst the Greens record their best ever seat projection and the Constitutional question remains pretty steady with advantage to the Union. […]
True to their form, Ipsos give the most favourable SNP figures of anyone in the recent run of polling, and even suggest a lead for Independence. Although the headline figures are outliers, the direction of travel is the same: a sharp loss of SNP support. […]
After initially holding out an expectation the SNP-Green government would retain its majority, Survation aligns with the bulk of pollsters in suggesting a Pro-Union majority at Holyrood instead. The constitution nonetheless remains a nearly even split, with advantage to the Union. […]
The most dramatic Holyrood poll in nearly a decade gives a narrow Labour lead, the first time anyone bar the SNP has led a poll since the Independence Referendum. Unlike the last R&W, Lib Dem figures are much less nonsensical, and the Greens project to their best ever seat tally. […]
YouGov join Survation in going against trend with a projected SNP-Green majority, but only just. Meanwhile, a significant plurality of voters think Nicola Sturgeon should be suspended from the SNP whilst investigations into party finances are ongoing. […]
The fourth poll to emerge after Humza Yousaf takes office is the only one that’ll bring him any cheer, suggesting an easy continuation for the current SNP-Green government. Though that’s an outlier for Holyrood, Westminster and Independence figures align closely with other pollsters. […]
The second entry in what is meant to be a monthly tracker raises my eyebrow so far it’s practically stratospheric, with an extremely dubious poll suggesting the biggest winners from SNP woes are… the Lib Dems? Nobody else is finding this, behave. […]
