The latest EU referendum polls: is Leave or Remain in the lead?

As the votes are finally cast, the latest Brexit polls are still in the balance.

By New Statesman

<!]]>*/

Throughout the EU referendum campaign, polling has been too close to predict an easy victory for either side. And as voting closes, that’s still the case.

The final poll from YouGov gives Remain a sliver of hope with a 2 per cent lead, while ComRes puts Remain 6 per cent ahead – a sturdy margin, but one that is canceled out by other recent polling showing a clear majority for Leave or a very tight result.

The latest Brexit odds show that bookmakers continue to think Remain is the most likely outcome, and Remain will probably get the benefit of being the status quo when voters enter the polling booth. But will that be enough to compensate for a campaign that couldn’t match Leave on memorable talking points?

Read on to find out what the latest polls are saying – or come over to our EU referendum liveblog for the results as they come in.
