Keep sneering at Gaelic and calling for it to be suppressed. It’s a real unionist vote winner.

Have you seen today’s Survation polls?

The last Survation poll shows support for separation to be 2 points down from the last one which was a Panelbase one in August.

Good news for the Union.

It’s up 3 from the previous Survation poll and that’s how polls are normally compared. No is down 3. A 6 point swing.

7 yes polls in a row now.

I'd say that's a poor way to look at it.  A more accurate way would be to compare ones with similar questions or methodology.  Very hard to do without talking the time out.

What I do notice is that during these last 7 polls, the gap between yes and no seems to be larger when the 'don't know's' are largest, which suggests to me that most don't knows would support the Union.

We've had knee-jerk emotional responses that have caused short-term Yes support before.  Hopefully the current Yes nosedive is a sign that things are returning to normal.

When my loon was at Glasgow university one of the lads was studying Law Jambo big Hearts fan and from a very wealthy family they live on the capitals most expensive street and he was a big no voter he was speaking to my loon telling him because Brexit quite a number of his friends are now backing the next YES vote .

Now that's a huge statement from him .
For me it's not the polls you should be worrying about it's the Brexit result and how the Tories are handling it .

You must see it for yourself
That's the reason Scotland will be set free .

I think a lot of the recent post-EU referendum converts to Yes will fall away once they realise Scotland won't be allowed in the EU without joining the Euro and them inflicting a massive austerity programme on our people.

It's an emotional thing at the moment because people are annoyed.

If Brexit works out well for us, and I don't see why it wouldn't, then people will quite comfortable again.

Just my take on it

I actually know of some converts from Yes to No as well.  The economic case is even worse now IMO.
