A fair bit of "house effect" going on. Labour leads everywhere, by anything from 3 to 8 pts. 2nd place depends on whose poll you read: Opinium, Deltapoll & ourselves have Reform. Ipsos, YouGov, MiC and FON have the Tories. Pooled, Con & Reform sit level on 22. Widest spreads are Labour (26–32) & Greens (7–13); everyone else within 4 points.
Today, the UK government has approved extraction from the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea.
Previous polling on behalf of the Forum for Research on Energy showed that 6 in 10 Scots supported the approval prior to its happening:
survation.com/six-in-ten-sco…
On Rosebank, 64% say the UK Government should approve it and 16% say it should not. 63% say the Scottish Government should support both the Jackdaw and Rosebank projects going ahead, against 18% who say it should not.
55% say the Scottish Government should be more supportive of continued North Sea oil and gas production, 20% that its current position is about right and 11% that it should be less supportive. Among those who voted SNP at May’s election, 47% want the Scottish Government to be more supportive, against 30% who think its position is about right.
59% support developing oil and gas in the UK North Sea and 14% oppose it; 65% support expanding offshore wind around Scotland and 11% oppose it; 60% support building new electricity transmission infrastructure, such as pylons and substations, with 9% opposed.
On planning for that infrastructure, 34% would make the process faster even if communities have fewer chances to object, 27% would keep it as it is and 23% would give communities more chances to object.
