THE opponents of independence thought that they had achieved a milestone victory with last month's Supreme Court ruling, which found that the Scottish Parliament does not have the legal right to hold an independence referendum.
They must be thinking again now.
A new poll from the traditionally No-friendly YouGov became the fourth in a row to give a lead to independence. Every single poll since the court handed down its ruling has shown a rise in support for independence and put support for independence in the lead over opposition to it. One poll can be dismissed as a statistical blip … four in a row points to a real change happening in public opinion.
