Two opinion polls conducted by telephone ahead of the U.K.’s June 23 referendum on European Union membership showed clear but reduced leads for staying in the bloc.
A Survation survey conducted March 17-19 found 46 percent of respondents backing “Remain” with 35 percent for “Leave” and 19 percent undecided. That 11 percentage-point lead for staying in is down from 15 percent a month earlier, Survation said in a statement Thursday.
