The TNS poll discovered 40 per cent of English and Welsh adults believed Scottish independence would leave the rest of the UK worse off, with 18 per cent believing a Yes vote would make the rest of the UK better off.
Despite the potential implications for the union, the poll found a high level of disengagement in England and Wales, with only 55 per cent saying they cared about the outcome of Thursday’s vote and more than a quarter (28 per cent) saying they did not care.
Almost a third (32 per cent) of those questioned said Scottish independence would lead to the rest of the UK having less influence on the world stage, up 10 points since the question was asked in June.
