It’s not looking good for the union. The advice the British have sought and are receiving is that a flat No to another referendum is not workable and that solutions are as follows:

1. An offer of much increased powers to the Scottish Parliament
2. Begging the EU to close the door on and independent Scotland being part of the single market. Good luck with that! 😆

Tough times for the Unionist cause.

Agree with that Pete.
Just wonder why the are desperate to keep us ?
If we were a burden then it makes good business sense to let us go.

It's not a case of them wanting to keep us, it's a case of us all being part of one nation, which is the UK, and a minority of one part of the Nation trying to split off.

This minority are desperately trying to use opinion polls with loaded questions, large numbers of undecideds, and small samples during a time when support for the split is at it's highest for a number of factors which we have every reason to believe won't last forever, only 6 years after we'd already settled the issue with the Nationalists getting everything on their terms.

That's not how democracy works, you can't just jump in opportunistically and demand to leave whenever the spoofing polls show its suits for a wee while, especially when the Edinburgh agreement stated the result would be respected and the Nationalists claimed it'd once in a generation or once in a lifetime opportunity.

As well as this, the polls were consistently favourable to the Nats pre-referendum with the final result being way different, so we shouldn't really go by them should we?  Especially one which seems to be an outlier compared to the rest, which only have a slight gap.
