Yes and No
A new poll shows nine point lead for independence. The Panelbase poll for Business in Scotland shows Yes winning a referendum in an exact reversal of the 2014 referendum if undecideds are excluded.
The longer Unionists deny us a referendum the more support we get. The Union was not meant to be the corrupt dictatorship which it has turned into and the people of Scotland have woken up. Why have a slice of the cake when you can have the whole thing?

Oh thank goodness more of us are now seeing the light! Well done all you wonderful, clever people who have changed from ‘No’ to ‘Yes’. There is light at the end of this very very long tunnel.
Caroline Campbell
You are not getting another vote. Sorry to say that you will be in the tunnel for a very long time. Mind the train doesn’t run you all down.
Robert Fairbairn
We’re on the right side of the road now. Onward to selfdetermination like every other nation.
Martin Kerr
An unsurprising turnaround given factors around Brexit and the perception of how Covid’s been handled. The point is that a largely static and equal group support each position, with a relatively low fluid percentage that would sway any potential referendum, much like all the referenda we’ve had lately.
Phil Allwright
You need to remember the starting point for the yes campaign was in the 20 per cent region last time.
Andrew Pete
There isn’t a plan on the table to encourage independence that isn’t based on fabrication. Pure factual evidence could well sway a vote toward it. The fact is, six years on I’ve still yet to see one.
Paul Roach
Ever felt like you are being manipulated a year ahead of the Scottish Election. Devolution has turn the UK into a pollsters’ dream, a cash cow of different elections
Ken De Soyza
Never met a single ‘No’ voter who is now ‘Yes’. Met a few ‘Ye’ voters who are now ‘No’ though. Must have been a Glasgow poll.
Christine Heeps
You obviously don’t get out much then.
Mo Dalzeil I am an ex ‘No’ voter and now couldn’t be more ‘Yes’, along with most of my family. The end of this pathetic union is almost upon us.
Lee Hamilton
Sturgeon won’t have a referendum because to do so she’d have to lay out how it would be affordable. There’s no doubt Scotland could be independent but we’d have to cut our cloth accordingly. How many would still vote ‘Yes’ if they were told they’d be £2k a year worse off for more than a decade and possibly forever? Would you?
