Two points:

1) Panelbase prompted for AP and AFU here. Survation did not. This approach is why the SSP have poll 3% in YouGov polls despite not standing...

2) Panelbase prompted for 'The Alba Party (led by Alex Salmond)'. That is... not good practice...

NEW POLL: Panelbase/Sunday Times.

Constituency:

SNP - 49%
Tories - 22%
Labour - 20%
Lib Dems - 6%

List:

SNP - 39%
Tories - 21%
Labour - 17%
Lib Dems - 5%
Greens - 8%
Alba - 6%
AFU - 4%

#SP21 (corrected from AFI to AFU)

Usual caveats about margins of error apply. AFU is Alliance for Unity, George Galloway's latest grift, which is rabidly unionist. It'll be a miracle if it gets anywhere near 4%, and if it does, it could be bad news for the other unionist parties.
