At present, Brexit odds into 11/5 according to Betfair.

According to Express UK: "The poll found 52 per cent chose to leave the EU, with only 33 per cent choosing to keep the status quo. Despite there being less than two weeks before the crucial referendum, on June 23, a further 15 per cent said they still didn't know."

Express UK adds: "Of those who voted to leave the majority, 39 per cent, said that Britain should have some sort of Free Trade Agreement with the EU, similar to the one currently enjoyed between the US, Canada and Mexico. A further 13 per cent said they would accept the off-the-shelf-membership of EFTA, the European Free Trade Association with a single market. "
