More likely an outlier or different question to the normal polls.

It's very noticeable that Barcrud either misses or ignores anything which isn't sufficiently pro-Labour for his personal views.

I have to say that, although our First Minister has a pungently stinky breath, he's led this administration well and made good on his promises - which in the main were for things I supported. How may policiticans in the national arena can claim to have done the same thing?
So my vote may well land with them, rather than to the Scottish Labour party.
So, if I had been polled the other day, I would have been one who increased their prospective vote.

I believe this is the one Green party help paid, According to the numbers If the Greens and Labour get into bed = 65 magic number.
It seems the tories have returned to the normal level, with the drop in lib dem suport, it still points to them losing a number of seats. I think the SNP could also pick up seats thanks to this.

Yes but it was still conducted by YouGov using their fairly tried-and-tested methodology.
