Polls, Petrol & Parties

The political landscape is shifting fast—and it’s no coincidence that support for Scottish independence is rising just as Keir Starmer’s popularity hits a record low. A recent Ipsos poll shows 52% of Scots would vote Yes in a second referendum.
Meanwhile, Jeremy Corbyn is making waves with plans to launch a new left-wing party tapping into widespread disillusionment with Labour’s direction. He’s promising “real change” and a “new kind of political party” built from the grassroots up—which aligns powerfully with our vision for principled activism. Pollsters suggest this new party could siphon off up to 10% of the vote, threatening Labour’s hold on urban and university constituencies. And with Corbyn’s past support for Indyref2, there’s potential for a renewed alliance between leftist movements and Scottish independence advocates.
