My latest 'investigation' into poll weightings has found some interesting insights into Yougov #Indyref2 polls. Yougov seem to have fallen asleep at the polling wheel in April 2019, only to awake nearly 4 years later realising demographic change was afoot. (1/3) 
In November 2022 (probably after a nudge from the Scottish Election Study) they realised that those darned electors had been sneakily ageing and upped the New voter share by 5 points. (2/3)
Then in December 22 they seem to have gone completely off-piste: upped the New voter figure by another 3 points and abandoned their 2014 #Indyref weighting - meaning a record low No weighting of 40%. Not surprisingly this led to a record Yes figure of 47% in that poll. (3/3)
