1. SNP 0?

   Clearly a UK wide survey and not useful here.

2. Yeah reminder with posting propagandised polls, this comes from a “peoples poll/GBN poll” as in the shitey right wing news network. Is it really a surprise with such an illustrious poll base as GB news that it’s 0% for the SNP.

   What should be more worrying to you is that 47% of GB news watchers want to vote Labour, really says a lot about how fucking dreadful that party is. They are straight up a right wing party that people who froth at the mouth about immigrants and are definitely on a far right slant are willing to vote for.

   Evidence:

3. Don’t think even the most ardent of anti-SNP people would be stupid enough to believe this. This is brain-rot levels, honestly.

4. 0%???????? that is Clearly wrong lmfao.

5. The fact it was commissioned by GBNews is irrelevant tbh – PeoplePolling is a legitimate polling company and a member of the UK Polling Council, and this is a standard voting intention poll they do on a regular basis.

   The margin of error will be a few percentage points, so the SNP figure will just be an outlier – not worth reading too much into a single poll here in terms of the SNP as in a UK wide survey, their numbers are always very small and so fluctuate comparatively wildly.

6. Subs gone

7. Obviously the Scotland subsample of a UK poll is going to be iffy. A 150 sample of 5.5m people generates an 8% margin of error, so that figure of 0% is meaningless.

   Interestingly, [a Yougov poll released today](https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/49455-voting-intention-con-20-lab-47-15-16-may-2024) does show the same 47/20 figures for Labour/Tories though. Reform are only on 11% in that one though, with the SNP getting a similarly statistically iffy 3%.

8. Quite possible the most useless poll of all time.

9. #Sturgeon must resign

10. >Yes the SNP figure is correct, however I would be very very surprised if this was not just an outlier, even with the current downward trend in their polling, they will still probably get some votes.

    Yeah. Err. If anything Swinney should have moved the numbers up for them since he seems to be a return to adult politics

11. Commissioned by GB news and a complete collapse of the SNP vote? Even with subsample margin of error, I’m calling shenanigans.

12. Does anyone bother looking at data tables before reporting polls?

    [They fucked up the table they pull headline voting intention from.](https://twitter.com/markmcgeoghegan/status/1791476732807057507?t=GDVBaEEDGjp9Euax2rERVw&s=19)

13. You literally couldnae pay me to return to voting Labour… Labour died a wee while back and the current reanimated lot are absolute ghouls!
