Polling and Projections
Poll Analysis: Survation 10th – 12th of January 2023
The second poll by the same pollster in quick succession finds very little different on election VI – but gives the largest lead for the Union in eight months. […]
Survation
Polling and Projections
Poll Analysis: Survation 22nd of December 2022 – 1st of January 2023
The first poll of 2023 (okay, mostly 2022, but it ended this year…) finds very little change compared to the previous, though with enough of a small Conservative recovery to draw clearly back ahead of the Greens. […]
Polling and Projections
Poll Analysis: Survation 28th – 29th of September 2022
As is tradition, we wait for two weeks of intense, dramatic UK political events before we get any Scotland-only polls, and three come along at once. The first of these to finish fieldwork finds hands down the strongest Labour figures since before the 2015 General Election, and Greens tied on seats with the Conservatives. […]
Local Elections 2022
BBS EXCLUSIVE Local Election 2022 Poll: Survation 24th – 28th of March 2022
Part two of BBS’ exclusive and first-ever poll finds the SNP could be on track for a record local result – but almost invisible Independents and weak Greens suggest a poll worth taking with a barrel of salt. Voters generally find their local councils effective, and largely think they are the right size. […]
Polling and Projections
BBS EXCLUSIVE Poll Analysis: Survation 24th – 28th of March 2022
BBS’ first ever poll finds Labour’s best polling of the term so far, putting them well clear of the Conservatives in both parliaments. The constitutional question continues to tilt narrowly towards the Union, whilst questions on the voting system show strong support for PR at Westminster and ending Scotland’s odd “three systems, one country” status. […]
Polling and Projections
Poll Analysis: Survation 30th of April – 4th of May 2021
In the last polling analysis piece of the election, Survation have a narrow SNP majority and an equally narrow Conservative lead over Labour, and add to the stream of polls showing the constitutional pendulum swinging back towards Union. […]
Polling and Projections
Poll Analysis: Survation 23rd – 26th of April 2021
A rather belated release of data from Survation finally has them breaking their lonely trend of Labour placing second, slotting them third behind the Conservatives, whilst the SNP appear to fall short of a majority and Greens and Lib Dems score solid gains on 2016. […]
Polling and Projections
Poll Analysis: Survation 20th – 22nd of April 2021
Survation continue their trend of being the outlier putting Labour in second, with their best result since late 2018, whilst a low point for the SNP’s regional list vote may be rendered moot by a clear lead in constituencies. […]
Polling and Projections
Poll Analysis: Survation, 29th – 30th of March 2021
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. […]
Polling and Projections
Survation, 11th – 18th of March 2021
A second poll released in the one week from Survation, this paints a slightly different picture of the SNP gaining a majority. It also includes a proper, standard Independence question, which finds the Union slightly ahead. […]
