David Maddox: The numbers game (5)
I have just been sent the latest Scottish sample results from the most recent UK Populus poll.
Admittedly a sample of 127 people is hardly much of an indicator to write home about, but the SNP member who sent it me clearly enjoyed the effect the results would have in a UK general election.
Conservatives 11% Labour 27% Liberal Democrats 18% SNP 43%
According to Electoral Calculus this would mean the following Westminster seat allocation:
Conservative 0 (-1) Labour 7 (-34) Lib Dems 8 (-3) SNP 44 (+38)
Now that would be a result that would bring about a referendum on independence!

Looks like SNPTacticalvoting Jeff's obsession to me.
But seriously, couldn't one of the Scottish titles find enough for a Holyrood voting intention tracker even in this belt-tightening times?
