Ipsos poll puts support for independence at 52% - and says it will go higher if Farage is PM

Should Scotland be an independent country?  (Ipsos / STV)

Yes 52%
No 48%

I have an analysis piece about this poll at The National, which you can read HERE.  I'm also going to try to make a video about the poll later on - apart from the independence numbers, there are voting intention numbers for Holyrood, net ratings for party leaders, and a question about whether voters will be more likely to back independence if Reform win the general election.

Eurovision and Israel: No More Hiding Places For The BBC

Scot Goes Pop: The Final Fundraiser is underway (you can read more about why I anticipate it being the final one HERE) and it's already pretty close to halfway to its target figure of £1700.  A million thanks to everyone who has donated so far.  Card donations can be made at the GoFundMe page HERE, or if you prefer to cut out the middle-man, direct PayPal donations can be made to my PayPal email address, which is:   jkellysta@yahoo.co.uk
