"FIRST MINISTER Alex Salmond's plan for a referendum on independence has received a boost after a new poll showed a surge in support for a separate Scottish state. The latest snapshot has revealed that 40% of the population want the Scottish government to negotiate independence with the UK government, a figure that is up 5% in three months. This contrasts with 44% of people who do not want Scotland to pull out of the UK, which is 6% down from August. "
Mr Smith isn't convinced of the merits of independence. He is also not convinced of the merits of the status quo, especially given the almost universal lack of political leadership which is being displayed by all of Scotland's politicians.
We deserve better.
