But it would be equally naive to assume that every LibDem, Labour or Tory voter would vote against. Opinion polls consistantly show that a hugh chunk of urban Labour voters have nationalist tendancies. Not sure about the Tories, but I would not be in the least bit surprised if a percentage of rural working class Tories also voted 'yes'. After all, most SNP seats are rural ex-Tory constituencies. Likewise, there may well a number of LibDem Federalists who also vote 'yes'. I probably would, depending on how it was phrased.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
