A YouGov poll of 1,134 Scottish people found more than half (54 percent) of SNP voters don't want English tourists to be able to cross the border. This compares with just over a third (37 percent) of Scottish Labour supporters and 19 percent of those who voted for the Scottish Conservatives in last December's general election. Just over half (52 percent) of Scots who voted "Yes" in the 2014 independence referendum also oppose letting in English tourists without entering a period of quarantine, while 55 percent of "No" voters support allowing English tourists into Scotland.
Overall, 47 percent of people quizzed in the poll supported English tourists being able to enter the country without a period of isolation.
More than a third (34 percent) of SNP voters support the current system of allowing English voters to cross the border without requiring them to quarantine, as opposed to 49 percent of Labour voters and 65 percent of Tory voters.
The poll was carried out as Scottish independence supporters stepped up their campaign for the country to split from the rest of the UK, with a protest at the border demanding people from England be banned from entering or to impose a mandatory quarantine period.

Must it happen again?
Well then. Sort of changes things.
It’s remarkable how important borders have become all of a sudden. Lots of great quotes and videos to use the next time the open immigration supporters are feeling their oats.
I would like to see a poll of Texans regarding their California border.

Well then. Sort of changes things.
Many want to stop being England's bum younger brother sleeping on the couch to being the EU's bum cousin sleeping on their couch.
That is such a fabulous series of books that they have a social place in my heart as do all the characters. The TV series hasn’t been as satisfying as Gabaldon’s writing but is incredibly well done.
Love the casting.
You can always tell an English
You can always tell a Dutch
You can always tell a Scotsman
But you can’t tell him much.
The problem with Scotland is that it's full of Scots.
Maybe its just the morning or my health, but I cant quite make heads nor tails out of this polling write-up.
LOL. I remember that episode.Seinfeld and Monty Python have one thing in common. No matter what the topic, you can find a clip that applies.
I wonder then if English who take Scottish vacations will be allowed in?
I can think of one...Queen Elizabeth II. What about her?
They tried to dig the Panama Canal and sucked at it. True story.
