Cameron dealt MAJOR blow by poll as Brexit campaign gains majority favour

A NEW poll has dealt a major blow for David Cameron's credibility after it revealed that voters do not believe his claims about his EU deal and have more trust for Brexit supporter Boris Johnson.

A massive YouGov poll of 3,482 people revealed that the Leave campaign is one point ahead of the Remain with 38 per cent to 37 per cent.

It also showed almost half — 49 per cent — think Mr Cameron's deal on restricting benefits to EU migrants will have no effect on immigration and 35 per cent think he got a bad deal while only 26 per cent believe it is good for Britain.

Meanwhile the poll also showed that the London Mayor Mr Johnson is the most trusted voice on Europe with 34 per cent compared to the Prime Minister's 29 per cent.

Ukip leader Nigel Farage importance in the campaign is highlighted by a 22 per cent trust rating.

The figures come as polling expert Professor John Curtice has said that Britain has is as sceptical about Europe as it has ever been."

However, the tightness of the contest ahead of the historic in/ out vote on 23 June was highlighted by a ComRes poll which puts the Remain side 12 points ahead.
