［エディンバラ １１日 ロイター］ - 調査機関ユーガブの最新世論調査によると、英スコットランドの独立の是非を問う住民投票を１週間後に控え、独立反対派が賛成派を僅差で上回り、再逆転した。
態度を決めかねている有権者を除いたベースで、独立反対は５２％、賛成は４８％だった。
ユーガブのピーター・ケルナー社長は「独立反対派は８月初旬以降で初めて増加に転じた。ただ、逆転はしたものの、賛成派は８月初めからの勢いをほぼ維持している」と語った。
調査は９月９─１１日に１２６８人を対象に行われた。
前回週末に実施された調査では、独立賛成派が反対派を５１％対４９％の僅差で上回った。賛成派は約１カ月の間に２０ポイント以上の差を縮めて急伸した。
