SCOTLAND is on course to vote for independence, according to a shock new poll that today puts Alex Salmond’s “yes” campaign in the lead for the first time.
The YouGov survey for The Sunday Times shows that the nationalists have taken a two-point lead and are poised to triumph in the referendum on September 18.
The poll puts the “yes” campaign on 51%, with the unionists on 49% — overturning a 22-point lead for the Better Together campaign in the space of a month.
