Their sample size for Scotland must be small and to them what ever happens to the SNP vote wouldn't make a difference when we know that the loss of say 20 Scottish seats by Labour could make all the difference. You Gov pols should be taken with a pinch of salt as they always underestimate both the SNP and the Yes vote. I think that monitoring internet chatter is a better way of assessing things as the internet noise was way ahead of the polls in 2011 and I see the same this time.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04662305609999461155noreply@blogger.com
