Support for Scottish independence has increased to 34% according to a February 2013 poll. This is up 4 points since October 2012 and bucks the recent downward trend. Support is highest among men aged 18-24 and supporters of the Scottish National Party (SNP). The SNP also has an 8 point lead over Labour among those certain to vote in the next Scottish Parliament election, widening the gap between the two parties. Half of Scots are satisfied with the job Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon are doing as First Minister and Deputy First Minister respectively.
