MOST Scottish Labour voters aren't convinced Jeremy Corbyn will ever be Prime Minister.

In a new poll carried out by Panelbase for Wings Over Scotland, just 48 per cent of Scottish Labour supporters think Corbyn will get his foot in the door at No 10.

Among all voters, just 25 per cent believe the veteran left winger would be asked by the Queen to form a government, and 52 per cent said Corbyn had no chance, while another 23 per cent said they didn’t know.

The poll for the pro-independence website also showed a lack of appetite for another General Election in the immediate future.

Asked when they thought the next UK-wide election should be, just 19 per cent said next year, another 16 per cent said after Brexit negotiations are concluded, but before the UK leaves the EU. Another 12 per cent thought immediately after Brexit, while 38 per cent don’t want to be asked to cast a vote until 2022, when the next poll is scheduled under the Fixed-terms Parliament Act.

The breakdown of the numbers showed that only SNP and Labour voters had any real enthusiasm for a poll before Brexit,

Fifty-two per cent of SNP voters, and 46 per cent of Labour supporters wanted the next election before Brexit. Just 27 per cent of LibDem voters and 35 per cent of Scots Tories felt the same way.

Scots did, however, substantially back the possibility of a second referendum on the UK’s membership of the EU.

Forty-seven per cent of voters said they would like to be asked to cast their vote on the European question again, once Brexit negotiations are concluded and the final deal is known – 41 per cent of voters said no, and 12 per cent said don’t know.

Stu Campbell, the editor of Wings over Scotland, said the polling here was “all moot”, because it was unlikely there would be a second EU referendum.

“Neither the Tories nor Labour back the idea, and the LibDems and the SNP couldn’t form a UK Government even if there was an early election, which voters are against in any event. There is no viable UK parliamentary route to avoiding Brexit,” he said.

“So whichever question you ask, the answers all ultimately come back the same way. Jeremy Corbyn and Labour can’t save Scotland from being dragged out of the EU against its will. Independence is the only possible escape.”

An SNP spokesman told The National: “This poll shows Jeremy Corbyn is as much of a disappointment to Labour voters as he is to everyone else. Even up against the most incompetent UK Government in living memory, Scots overwhelmingly don’t believe that Jeremy Corbyn will ever be Prime Minister – raising the prospect of even more years of a hard-right, Brexit-obsessed Tory government across the UK.

“The only way people in Scotland can guarantee they get the government they vote for is through independence.”

Meanwhile, a new poll for YouGov, suggested Labour needed to desperately clarify it’s position on Brexit or risk losing a quarter of its current voters.

The poll of people who intend to vote for Corbyn’s party at the next election found that 24 per cent of Labour voters across the UK said they may change their minds before the next election. There was widespread confusion about what Labour and Corbyn actually stood for.

Thirty-two per cent of Labour voters who backed Remain say they believe the party is “completely against Brexit,” while 31 per cent believe Labour is “completely in favour of Brexit”.

Mark Malloch Brown, a crossbench peer and chair of Best for Britain, who commissioned the poll said: “This data shows, clearly, that many more Remainers are likely to abandon Labour over its Brexit line than Leavers. Labour did so well in the election off the back of pro-European voters tactically voting for them. All that could be at risk if this policy, a calculated policy of ambiguity, continues.”

The party’s official position is to remain in the single market during the period between Brexit day in March 2019 and the start of any trade partnership agreed between London and Brussels. But Corbyn has been reluctant to spell out what that should be.
