No they haven't,you are completely wrong ,the Prime Minister is not allowed to influence the BofE at all ,it is independent from government

I've been looking at at that poll and it strikes me that the result isn't as clear cut as the media is making out .
The questions where asked in pairs not as a whole ,for example i could ask
"should the government prioritise reducing immigration or prioritise getting a good trade deal when negotiating Brexit"
that question would give the result you and the media are reporting,however the question wasn't a single question it was a 2 part question ,one part dealing with immigration and the other part dealing with trade and then asking to choose which one best suits your view

For each of the following pairs of statements, which comes closest to your own opinion?
The government should prioritise reducing immigration when negotiating the UK’s exit from the EU 39%
The government should prioritise getting favourable trade deals with EU countries when negotiating the UK’s exit from the EU 49%

I don't think it's the same as asking "which would you prefer"
