Survation on behalf of Unison Scotland interviewed 1,005 Scots aged 16+ online about their views on a range of issues. Fieldwork was conducted 6-10 March 2015.

We found that:

• The top three issues for Scots and their families ahead of the general election are ‘public services (schools, hospitals & GP services, council services etc.)’ (58%), ‘welfare / pensions / social security provision’ (48%) and ‘the availability and security of jobs and the level of wages’ (40%).
• 44% of Scots believe that a Labour-led government in Westminster would be better for public services in Scotland. This compares to just 20% who believe that a Conservative-led government in Westminster would be better for public services in Scotland, and 36% who don’t know.
• If the next government was to raise £2bn by cracking down on tax avoidance, a majority (58%) of Scots believe that the money should be spent on improving public services, compared to less than two-fifths (19%) who think it should be spent on reducing public borrowing, 17% who think that it should be used on income tax cuts and 7% who don’t know.
• Two-thirds (66%) of Scots support a 50p income tax rate for those who earn over £150,000, compared to just 14% who oppose, 15% who neither support nor oppose and 5% who don’t know.
• Almost three quarters (72%) of Scots believe that it should be a requirement of all organisations seeking publicly-funded contracts to pay at least the living wage
