New voting data suggests that support for the SNP has slumped to its lowest level since IndyRef following the resignation of Nicola Sturgeon and an investigation into party finances has rocked the political party into unstable territory.
The data from YouGov, which polled 1,032 Scottish adults between April 17-20, found that the SNP’s constituency vote share has dropped five points since March to 38%, the joint-lowest since the independence referendum in 2014.
As recently as December the SNP was on 50% in constituency voting intention. The poll shows that Labour’s constituency vote share of 30% is the highest it has achieved since the 2014 vote.
