I forgot to check thoroughly, this previous poll by Opinium for the Observer, 13th to 15th March, with 110 adults, online and with The Independent Group included, giving:
Conservatives 25
Labour 8
TIG 4
Lib Dems 4
UKIP 6
SNP 51
Green 2

Look at the size of Labour as the Yoons circle the wagons in Jackson Carlaw’s forecourt. You don’t, however, get the SNP surge if you exclude TIG. Then you get only 44% support for SNP. Why is that? Labour Indy-supporters give up the ghost as TIG threatens to finish them off?
So, maybe a bit more optimism allowed than I thought earlier this evening?
Wow… maybe finally the turning towards Independence is starting to flow.

Maybe this sort of thing happening in England is one reason why more people are supporting the SNP and realising that Independence would be a good thing:

Wouldn’t happen in Scotland.

It might just be a straw in the wind or the product of sincere and understandable annoyance at Mrs May’s ridiculous speech the previous evening, but a friend who has been a pretty solid Labour supporter and thoughtful opponent of independence announced that Brexit was turning out to be such a bourach that he would vote for independence.

We need to cultivate this sort of Scot and convince them even further. Onwards and upwards!
