- “Remain” has a 21 point lead over “Leave” on the EU referendum question: 56% of Britons say they would vote Remain compared to 35% who say they would vote Leave. This is little changed since September 2015.
- The three issues held to be most important by the British public are: providing measures to ensure the UK will not be disadvantaged by decisions taken by the Eurozone states (i.e. countries that use the Euro) (76%); strengthening the European single market (76%); ensuring that new migrants coming to the UK from EU countries cannot receive in-work benefits, such as child benefits or tax credits, for four years (74%).
- If David Cameron was successful in securing agreement on all demands up for negotiation, two thirds of British adults (65%) say they would vote to remain in the EU while one quarter (26%) say they would vote to leave.
- If David Cameron did not secure agreement on any of the demands listed, the proportion of Britons saying they would vote to leave the EU increases from initial voting intention figures.
