Support for Scottish independence has reached 56 per cent, according to a new poll.
The Ipsos’ Scottish Political Monitor, run in partnership with STV News, is the second survey since the Supreme Court ruled that Holyrood could not hold a referendum without the consent of Westminster.
According to STV’s analysis, that would translate into 58 seats for the SNP, and just one for Anas Sarwar’s party. The Tories would lose all of their Scottish MPs. The poll was raised at Prime Minister’s Questions by the SNP’s new Westminster leader, Stephen Flynn.“In the last 15 minutes, a poll has landed which shows the support for Scottish independence has now hit 56% and support for the Scottish National Party sits north of 50%.
Ms Sturgeon remains the most popular of the Scottish party leaders, holding a net favourability rating of +9.
