Parties divided among themselves do not inspire confidence

A recent poll from More in Common suggested that anti-independence parties could form a coalition to install a non-SNP leader as Scotland's next first minister, but the poll's methodology and results have been questioned. The poll's findings contradict other recent polls and fail to account for recent events that have affected the parties' standings.

A poll from More in Common suggested that the SNP and Scottish Greens might not secure a majority in Scotland's upcoming election, potentially allowing anti-independence parties to form a coalition. However, the poll's results are disputed due to its outdated information and methodological flaws. The poll's fieldwork spanned over two months, missing recent shifts in public opinion, such as the decline in support for Reform UK. Labour's internal divisions and controversies, including the Peter Mandelson appointment scandal, have also damaged the party's credibility. The Scottish Greens are only standing in six constituencies, and their voters are likely to support the SNP elsewhere. The poll's findings are unlikely to reflect the actual election outcome.
