Scottish Greens to overtake Tory vote at next Holyrood election, poll finds

A NEW poll has forecast a major boost in the fortunes of the Scottish Greens, putting them on a par with the Scottish Conservatives for regional Holyrood votes come the next election.

The research, carried out by Survation on behalf of the Unionist campaign group Scotland in Union, predicted the two parties would be neck-and-neck with both expected to scoop up 14% of the list vote come the next Scottish Parliament election.

It would be a humiliation for Douglas Ross’s party, with the Conservatives likely to lose their second-place ranking to Labour - who are predicted to pick up 27% of the vote.
