However 73% of the don’t knows (neither unionist or nationalist) said that in the case of a referendum they would vote to remain in the UK.

The don’t knows numbered 19% (52% were pro UK, 29% pro united Ireland) so 73% of the 19% is 13.87 percent of the total.

So adding 52% to 13.87% gives the true number (66%) who would vote to remain in the UK.

A large majority!

So take heart unionists.
