So how can it be 45%, if the the last couple of months were the best so far, and they were 43%?
I'd be interested to know what the poll of polls average is, when polls commissioned by any political party or campaigning organisation are excluded. I'm thinking particularly of the Panelbase polls commissioned by nationalists with their dodgy leading questions and their thoroughly compromised sample base, but for balance I'd be quite happy to see any Better Together polls excluded also.
