LABOUR’s lead over the SNP has fallen leaving the two parties level according to the latest General Election poll by Savanta UK.
Just one month ago Labour made all the headlines with polls predicting them to rout the SNP in Scotland come July 4, reducing the party to as few as 11 seats.
However, Savanta UK’s poll shows the two parties are now level with polling just one week away.
The poll shows both parties at 34% with Labour dropping by 4% and the SNP gaining 1%.

The Tories have fallen further behind, losing another 1%, as their total slips to 14%.
The LibDems have made no change.
Others have risen from 7% to 10% as parties like the Scottish Greens and Reform seem to have gathered more steam in Scotland.
The poll was conducted between June 21 to 26 and compares the data against polling conducted from June 14-18.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
