Scotland unlikely to leave the UK

reports:

Support for Scottish independence has fallen following a TV debate this week and the campaign to split the Kingdom will need a dramatic turnaround if it is to win a forthcoming , the latest poll shows. 

The Survation poll for the Scottish Daily Mail newspaper said 50 per cent of respondents planned to vote against independence in a ballot due on September 18 that will decide whether Scotland breaks its 307-year union with England.

It was the highest level of support for remaining part of the in all Survation polls since February.

By contrast, just 37 percent said they planned to vote for a split while 13 per cent said they were undecided. Excluding undecided voters, support for independence stood at 43 per cent against 57 per cent in favour of the union.

It's a pity in a way. think England might do better without Scotland dragging it down. Don't get me wrong – Scotland is a great country, but they chew up more than their share of UK expenditure.
