Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
Good news for the SNP.
Quote:
Boris Johnson would lose majority and seat in election tomorrow – poll

...Results in Scotland would see the Scottish National party achieve a near complete sweep, winning 57 of the 59 Scottish seats. ..

Justin Ibbett, founder of Focaldata, who carried out a similar poll for the Conservatives prior to the 2019 election, told the Sunday Times: “One year on from their stunning general election triumph, it is clear that the Conservatives already have a lot of work to do if they are to replicate their 2019 success in future elections.

“The SNP would appear to be the real winners. Not only do they win all but two Scottish constituencies, but the most likely outcome is a Labour-SNP coalition government, which would have an overall majority of just over 20 seats.”...

Tory supporters were quick to point out on social media that the survey period ended before news of the Brexit deal was announced and claim there is evidence of a swingback to the Conservatives in the few days since.
