    The last one had a few unforeseen consequences . . .

    The act played a seminal role in the formation of the Kingdom of Great Britain. England and Scotland had shared a monarch since 1603, but had remained separately governed countries. The Scottish parliament was more reluctant than the English to abandon the House of Stuart, members of which had been Scottish monarchs long before they became English ones. English pressure on Scotland to accept the Act of Settlement led to the parliamentary union of the two countries in 1707.

          Yeah, I assume they mean YouGov specifically (I recall one poll some time ago that had Yes marginally ahead, but it presumably wasn't YouGov).

          The momentum is undeniably with Yes.

              These various polls obviously have a material error margin, but much of that is related to differences in methodology, rather than sampling error, so when a single polling company starts to show that sort of shift in momentum...
