NEARLY half of Scots have said independence support should be at 60 per cent before a new referendum is held, according to a new poll.
A Savanta survey for Scotland on Sunday of 1002 people found that 45% of Scots backed the plans, with 34% in opposition.
The same debate would also include a motion that would see the 2026 Holyrood election treated as a “de facto referendum”, with a majority of votes for independence-supporting parties being enough for Scotland to become independent.Meanwhile, another survey by Panelbase for The Sunday Times found 47% of Scots believed no result at a General Election would be enough for a mandate for Scottish independence.
Some 65% of respondents said those earning more than £28,000 should pay the same tax as the rest of the UK, with 16% saying they should pay less, and 10% saying tax should be higher.
