Do you have a pro-European voter in your life who lives in either a Scottish Tory seat or a Scottish Tory target seat? Are they not especially party political but very keen on doing whatever they can to stop Brexit? If so, I’ve made this video just for them, so please feel free to pass it on. It’s a guide to anti-Brexit tactical voting in Scotland.
Unfortunately the figures for the Survation poll I tentatively reported in my previous post did turn out to be too good to be true, although it’s still a very good poll for the SNP – significantly better than the Panelbase polls, for example. Here are the correct numbers –
SNP 43%
Conservatives 28%
Labour 20%
Liberal Democrats 7%
Seats projection: SNP 47, Conservatives 8, Liberal Democrats 3, Labour 1
Labour will be breathing a sigh of relief this morning, but the Lib Dems must be horrified – if Survation are right they’re back to the share of the vote they started with in 2017.
There’s also some very good news on the independence question…
Should Scotland be an independent country?
Yes 49%
No 51%
