The survey, conducted for the Scottish Government, found that the number of people who think same-sex relationships are always or mostly wrong has dropped 11% since 2002 to 30%.

What Scots Think About Muslims, Immigrants And Gays

Daily Record

Dec 12 2007  By Magnus Gardham

NEARLY 30 per cent of Scots still think it is all right to be prejudiced.
Anti-Muslim feeling has increased since the start of the "war on terror", and more than a third of us would be unhappy if a relative married a gypsy or an asylum-seeker.  Half of Scots believe our nation will lose its identity if more Muslims come to live here.  And 14 per cent continue to claim that a woman's place is in the home.
