ITV News published this video item, entitled “More women supporting Scottish independence | ITV News” – below is their description.
Before the 2014 referendum, the campaign to leave the Union was a distinct long shot. But by last summer, for the first time, the polls showed a decisive swing in favour of Scottish independence.
The seeds were sown in Brexit, where Scotland’s big Remain majority counted for nothing. They took root during Nicola Sturgeon’s assured handling of the pandemic, though the surge appears to have been tempered in recent weeks.
So which groups of voters are behind the shift? Young ones, perhaps not surprisingly. More women are coming round to the idea too.
