Poll apprently putting Yes at three points behind now. However, no source has been provided by the Mail so rather sceptical. Could this be the hidden ICM poll being about to surface?
Does fly in the face of most recent polls, where the YES vote is stagnating

When did the SNP become a protest vote?
SNP are always a haven for "hacked off Tories", who could not bring themselves to vote either Lib-Dem or Labour

It's died down purely because they have had to slow down on the scaremongering before they lose too many votes.
The No campaign are sitting in a room like the YouTube clip of Downfall. Alistair Darling shouting "you all said this scaremongering would make them vote No!!!!!!!"
Reality is they don't know what tactics to use with only a couple of weeks before the official campaign period starts.
Not this garbage again, zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

It is the progressive partnership a independent market and research agency who ran the poll with YouGov
No it wasn't. It was conducted by Progressive Scottish Opinion.
They may have used the online YouGov panel, but PSO choose the weightings that they apply to the poll results. As such, it is totally meaningless to compare the result with the YouGov/Channel 4 poll from last week
In addition, they didn't ask the actual referendum question. They replaced the word "be" with "become", thus subtly emphasising the status quo
Finally, PSO don't adhere to British Polling Council rules. I seem to recollect that they have previously been accused of not publishing full polling data.
However, I'm sure that these minor problems won't stop you believing that "No" has an impregnable lead. Enjoy your dream.a new one that selective quoting

Sieving through your tears, snotters and shite, a couple of questions.
Who are the progressive group?
Was the question in the poll the same question that will be asked in the referendum?
How long will you cry for when a Yes vote is returned?
I will have to just get on with it if the vote goes against my views, as will you if the vote goes against yours

Do you have a link to their data? The Sunday Post just say it's a group called 'Progressive Partnership'.
It was done by YouGov for the "progressive group"
Revelling in a probable no vote, what a pathetic person you must be.
Not revelling only reporting, of course does not suit your agenda, so who is pathetic?
Another load of mewling, pathetic shite from Arbroath's most right wing resident.
I have been called many things in my life, some quite bad, but never anything as bad as been called "right-wing",
but once I again ask the question, how do many of you cope with disappointment?, because by the 19th of September you will have suffered a huge blow

I simply asked if they were a credible source. If it was a credible source then it would have been interesting to see if any trends were emerging.
EDIT: Even though the poll isn't verifiable it does show a shift towards 'Yes' compared to their last one (assuming methodologies are the same).
It was a YouGov poll

Was it carried out by a member of the British Polling Council? The same group did a poll in November with 27% Yes and 56% No and their methodology wasn't explained then either.
Pathetic.
same old, same old, I don't believe it, so it must be rubbish, if this poll had been to the advantage of Yes Scotland and the SNP, it would be being celebrated and its methodology would not have been questioned, now that's pathetic

Bit quiet here on the latest poll, today in the Sunday Mail, just saying

That's just a misleading headline figure.
The underlying trend shows Yes is gaining ground hand over fist. Poll of polls. Momentum. Stuff.
of course it is
one thing i will be glad of when this is all over, i will never hear the words "trend" or "momentum" ever again

Anyone had a cheeky wee look at the channel 4 news/ yougov poll tonight? Yes 42% No 58%

Much as I detest Tommy Campbell, I honestly think we were worse under Jim Weir.
The defeat at Irvine Meadow sums him up for me. I can't remember one redeeming feature from that game.
No danger, we were much worse, in the 1st part of that season under John McGlashan, was Irvine not his 1st game, It was Campbell by a mile

No way, surely it was Dick's brother? our's was Tommy Campbell

What the hell does that have to do with independence?
Nothing at all, just an excuse to have a "kick" at Ed Milliband

Thought this was the latest polls and odds thread?

Results usually flow from trends indicating the direction of public support.
If the trends are the same it is not unreasonable to conclude we'll get the same result.
Of course nothing is guaranteed and I'm the last person you'll see gloating before or after the result if it becomes a Yes but dismissing the trend as you are doing is not what BT should be doing and I am pretty certain they are paying VERY close attention.
A lot of politicians are about to lose their jobs if we get a Yes vote.
On this poll there appears that not only has the Yes vote gone up by 1% so has the No support also gone up by 1%, compared to the last Panelbase Poll, so if that is a trend, it is a trend, so i am not dismissing the trend at all and neither will the Better Together campaign

Another ironic post to add to your disaster about me being stereotypical after your rolled out the Braveheart shite.
You're saying polls are "playthings" now it shows an even footing eh? Do you have any ideas or thoughts that you don't backtrack on?
They must be "playthings" as polls are often ignored on this thread, oh i get it bad polls are ignored and dismissed
And if this was a lightning strike we were talking about maybe your metaphor would make sense.
Remarkably the polls are playing out PRECISELY as they did in 2011.
It's absolutely uncanny.
It seems uncanny, but nothing to say the result will be the same,

Thing is though if you look past the headline figure you can normally find good and bad for both sides. This is why I never take anything more than a passing notice of them.
Was there not one polling company in 2011 who were predicting a higher support for the SNP in the run up to that election as oppose to all the other companies?
It's a point that has been raised many times in the past, but is an important one. The only poll that counts for anything is the one on the 18th September
with all due respect, you need to stop quoting what happened in 2011, lightning very rarely strikes twice in the same place, but you are right polls are just "playthings" until 18th September

There is only one side that has continual ducked a bad poll on h
You are having a laugh, this thread is littered with polls that are ignored by pro-indy supporters, if the poll was done by panelbase, their previous polls have been generous to Yes Scotland in the past, just saying

Typical of this thread, no comment at all when polls are poor for pro-indy, but when they are better, suddenly the thread comes alive, selective or what?

No but you used Braveheart as an example of Scottish fervour.
In short, you're talking
We see by the 19th of September, who was talking pish

BBC Daily Politics are admitting the momentum is with Yes. That's from your London based journalists
If you are suggesting the polls going up by a marginal amount since Christmas is momentum, then there is momentum
It has changed as an event - a lot more international now - in fact probably more flags and participants from other countries than flags and folks from the UK. It is much more a celebration of music - there are usually events on simultaneous broadcast around the UK. A few friends went to the events held in Dundee over the past few years - and I wouldn't describe them as overly unionist - just music lovers.
I am not the one who used them as a example of unionist fervour, am sure for people who attend them find them very entertaining and enjoyable, but not my thing, but then again I am not a fan of Scottish Country Dance Music or the Bagpipes
It goes hand in hand from Northern Brits like you.
Never considered myself as a "Northern Brit", I always thought of the North of England as being more likely to be a "Northern Brit"
