:00:08. > :00:10.Good evening. Environmental campaigners have
:00:11. > :00:15.published league tables which they say identify Scotland's most
:00:16. > :00:18.polluted streets. Friends of the Earth Scotland have warned their
:00:19. > :00:21.research shows air pollution from vehicles is a major threat to
:00:22. > :00:32.health, even in some smaller towns and villages.
:00:33. > :00:38.Pope street in the centre of Glasgow is said to have the highest levels
:00:39. > :00:43.of nitrogen dioxide pollution in Scotland. That is linked to
:00:44. > :00:48.respiratory diseases. Meanwhile, market street in Aberdeen is claimed
:00:49. > :00:54.to have the highest levels of matter, tiny particles from vehicle
:00:55. > :00:58.exhausts are links to a high risk of heart attack. The problem of air
:00:59. > :01:03.pollution is not confined to our biggest towns and cities. There are
:01:04. > :01:09.some surprising places in the results. Missing health target in
:01:10. > :01:15.Crieff, Perthshire, even in small villages in some parts of West
:01:16. > :01:20.Lothian. Surprising way you can find a problem. The Scottish Government
:01:21. > :01:25.says pollution levels across the country have been falling. But
:01:26. > :01:28.accepts that more needs to be done. It is urging motorists to walk or
:01:29. > :01:35.cycle when travelling short distances.
:01:36. > :01:40.Politicians have clashed over the voting intentions of young people in
:01:41. > :01:46.September's referendum. It came as a poll showed a swing towards a yes
:01:47. > :01:53.vote amongst the young. Including 16 and 17-year-olds in the
:01:54. > :01:56.electorate was a rational with some question whether they were
:01:57. > :02:02.responsible enough. Now they have the power, how will they use it?
:02:03. > :02:05.There are a lot of uncertainties. Because of that, I wouldn't be
:02:06. > :02:12.voting yes at the moment. For as long as I can run but, I have been
:02:13. > :02:15.thinking yes. Politicians on both sides are keen to harness their vote
:02:16. > :02:21.and the shadow Foreign Secretary believes that the younger will opt
:02:22. > :02:27.for the union. Yell mac they are pragmatic as they see it we are
:02:28. > :02:34.unconnected generation ago, now we do not have to choose between being
:02:35. > :02:38.Scottish or British. A poll published today suggests a
:02:39. > :02:41.significant increase in support for independence, especially amongst
:02:42. > :02:47.young voters. In it, 37% of those questioned said
:02:48. > :02:53.they would vote yes, a 5% increase since September. 44% said they would
:02:54. > :03:03.vote no. Among the 16 to 24-year-old age group, 44% said they would vote
:03:04. > :03:06.yes. 32% plan to vote no. Questions have been raised about the small
:03:07. > :03:14.number of young people who were questioned. It is more important
:03:15. > :03:18.issue the trend in these debates. Young people want to see people that
:03:19. > :03:23.will talk about what Scotland can do, what we can achieve, young
:03:24. > :03:29.people can see that the no campaign is like one of those teachers that
:03:30. > :03:33.tells you what you cannot do. 16 to 24-year-olds make up a relatively
:03:34. > :03:37.small part of the electorate, but it is the youngest voters who will live
:03:38. > :03:41.longest with the result. Around 300 people have taken part in
:03:42. > :03:45.an Irish republican parade in the centre of Glasgow to mark the events
:03:46. > :03:52.of Bloody Sunday. A small counter-demonstration of loyalists
:03:53. > :03:57.near Glasgow Cathedral. Celtic have extended their unbeaten run to 22
:03:58. > :04:01.games with a 4-0 win over Hibernian. Kris Commons scored twice
:04:02. > :04:07.for the champions, thinking him over the 20 goal mark.
:04:08. > :04:14.After the match, Neil Lennon praised the goalkeeper, he kept Hibernian at
