46% of Scots want to separate from the UK; 43% want to remain


An Lord Ashcroft Poll for Holyrood found that the largest group of Scots with a preference favour independence from the UK: 46% leave vs 43% remain; after removing undecided voters, the figures are 52%-48%.


The Scottish Conservatives are adamant that there is no appetite for a Scottish independence referendum; the other major UK-wide parties are also officially opposed another referendum.


The majority of poll subjects were in favor of a referendum in 2021.
