I think that this result would be very useful.
A lot of people I've spoken to are broadly in favour of us being in the EU, but are fed up of certain elements, mainly immigration.
My hope would be that if a very marginal vote to remain was the outcome, our Government could tell the EU that their people voted to stay but only by a cats whisker and that to appease us they they need to address the areas of concern.
The bookies are laying odds on it being a 71% result in favour of us staying in the EU.
There have been claims that the registration deadline was only extended because the Government believes that it's mainly young people who left it to the last minute and that they are more likely to vote for us to stay in the EU.
