93% of our readers want to LEAVE EU with just 30 days until referendum

AN OVERWHELMING majority of Express.co.uk readers want out of the European Union (EU) an exclusive poll can reveal.

It comes as both the Leave and Remain camps prepare for the 30-day countdown until the referendum.

The poll reveals 93 per cent of readers will be voting to leave the 28-country club on June 23 – while just seven per cent will opt for the UK to stay.

The survey of 21,095 voters comes as other polls reveal the support for Remain and Leave across the UK is almost a dead heat at nearly 50:50.

While opinion polls have produced much confusion during the EU campaign, it is clear the UK is deeply divided over the European question.

Polls have revealed a stark generation gap, with the vast majority of under-25s intending to vote for Remain while most over-65s want out of the EU.

On average three-quarters of young people say they will vote to stay in the EU and just a quarter want to leave.

Three in five over-65s are edging towards a Brexit according to polls.

The EU referendum in on June 23

Data has shown younger people are less likely to vote, with the pro-EU camp concerned that up to 200,000 students could miss out on a vote in the referendum – handing the campaign to quit Brussels a major boost.

But an ORB poll for the Telegraph found over-65s are increasingly turning to the pro-EU campaign after previously supporting a Brexit in much larger numbers.

Young people are far more likely to be pro-EU

The poll results claim the majority of older voters, Conservative supporters and men have recently changed camps to back the EU.

Surveys have also revealed ethnic minorities are far more likely to vote to stay in the EU, while those who described themselves as “white” are evenly divided between supporters of Leave and backers of Remain.

Other polls suggest the camps are running neck and neck

With a month left to before until the historic decision, analysis has tried to predict how each area in the UK will vote based on the frequency of phrases used on Twitter.

Looking a number of pro and anti-EU hashtags, a team has produced a map showing whether residents are leaning towards Leave or Remain.
