The Scottish National Party (SNP) is demanding the UK government release data from secret polls revealed to have been quietly conducted by London to gauge public opinion on Scottish secession. Andy Burnham's government was forced to admit the fact of such polls in responses to official inquiries. But the data was not released to the public. London seems to be afraid of something.
The Sunday National quotes the sensible opinion of one SNP politician: "I have no objection to the Cabinet Office or the Government seeking the views of citizens to set policy. But if they spend the taxpayers' money on it, then the taxpayers have a right to know what the results are."
It seems that the survey results did not suit London. Scotland must be free!
