Scottish independence: Predicted effect on gap between rich and poor 2014 survey

Published by Statista Research Department, Aug 11, 2014

This statistic shows a distribution of respondents to a survey question designed to find out how those residing in Scotland think the gap between rich and poor would be effected if, in September 2014, Scotland voted 'yes' for independence from the United Kingdom. In January 2014, 37 percent of respondents thought there would be no such difference.

As a result of independence, would the gap between rich and poor in Scotland be bigger, smaller or would it make no difference?
