Unfortunately, they'll continue to dominate until independence happens because lots of people will vote for them until that outcome is achieved, and I need to admit that I'm one of them. There's the issue infecting all of British politics. Single issue blinkers. Be it Brexit or Indy2 or whatever, people can't see past that one issue and see the bigger picture. If the SNP did a better job of running this country, you'd see a much, much bigger support for Indy. As it stands, there are enough people who see through that one issue and don't vote for them because all they have is empty rhetoric. "Look at the potential Scotland has". Or, just a thought, you could do better for this country yourselves and more people would believe in this potential you keep speaking of. 3 hours ago, The Mighty Thor said: Wow. What a remarkable thread. Touched all the bases from SNP bad right through to SNP rapist. Telling that the new narrative of SNP voters and supporters are petty, nasty, racist extremists got an airing in the week that the Westminster government gave the dictionary definition of racist and xenophobic extremism with the new points based immigration system. (One which the Scottish government wants to opt out from) Anyway one man's wishful thinking is one man's wishful thinking.

I obviously disagree with your last paragraph! I don't think you'll ever get a sustained 55% for Indy or the Status Quo in the polls. I think the highest you'd ever see is 47%-49%-52% because there will always be a +/- 3% margin of error and at least 5-10% undecided. As with Devolution, there was twice a majority for it in the polls over a 17 year period, the highest at 52%. Right up until 1995 it was only in the mid 40%. In the end, it was 74.9% in favour during the 97 referendum. We haven't yet felt the effects that Brexit might have on Scotland. We haven't seen what tricks the UK government might play in riding roughshod over Devolution. This Tory Government has already pulled out the EVEL card on matters that affect Scotland. It's yet to play out. These things will have an affect on people's attitudes. Edited February 22, 2020 by Cruyff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
