Angus Reid has a new poll out which doesn’t have move much movement except to see the blues drop another point to their lowest level with the Canadian online firm since the general election. That election looks set to take place in more than four years using a voting system that has yet to be resolved and on a smaller number of slightly larger constituencies.
With the referendum in just five weeks time Angus Reid also had an AV question which shows a sharp move towards NO amongst decided voters.
Just look at the table above and all three of the most recent polls have either the two sides level or it being on 51-49.
Although the movement is slight the trend is is all in one direction and this election is becoming extremely difficult to predict – particularly as there’s been so little campaigning and the news is dominated by the big international stories.
Full details of the poll should be on the pollster’s website overnight.
