Referendum Poll: UK Predicted to Be First Country to Leave EUBy Joshua Krause At present, most polls show that support for the referendum is in a statistical dead heat, with 47% of voters saying they wish to remain in the EU, and 49% saying they want to leave. However, when respondents are questioned on the likelihood of actually showing up to vote, a different picture emerges. Its estimated that if the referendum were held today, 52% would vote to leave, and 45% would vote to stay. Among undecided voters, 31% said that their biggest hesitation in voting to stay in the EU, is the risk of uncontrolled immigration. If current opinions hold, then the UK is well on its way to leaving the EU, making them the first country to do so. Its expected to cause financial strain on the already fragile EU system, and may temporarily hurt the GDP of the UK. In addition, it may also lead to a new secession referendum in Scotland, where the majority of the population favors staying in the EU.

Most people do what the most powerful parties recommend. The mainstream political parties on both the right and left and most of the smaller political parties as well are all advocating to stay IN Europe, not out. So the chance of this prediction coming true is remote.
