Administrators that run an anti-EU group on Facebook were left red faced after a poll created to gauge the nation’s appetite for leaving the union returned a strong Remain consensus. 

The poll, posted on “Nigel Farage – Leave Means Leave”, garnered almost a million votes since it was posted on 22nd September.

It asked members of the anti-EU group how they would vote in a second referendum “knowing what you know”, but returned a shocking outcome. 

Some 63 per cent voted to remain in the EU, with just 37 per cent saying they now wish to leave the union – a stark turnaround on the national result in 2016. 

One group admin posted shortly before the result came in: “Amazing how no Remainers were ever going to see this Poll yet the result is neck and neck. And I for one couldn’t be happier. Democracy at its finest. Keep voting!” 

According to recent polling more than 100 parliamentary constituencies which backed Leave in the 2016 referendum would now vote to remain in the European Union.

The findings suggested that most seats in England, Scotland and Wales now contain a majority of voters who want to stay in the EU.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
