Latest Opinium, Survation and YouGov EU polls

Opinium's weekly poll for the Observer has topline figures of REMAIN 44%(nc), LEAVE 44%(+2), so split right down the middle. The fieldwork was conducted between Tuesday and Friday, but the majority was before the murder of Jo Cox. Full tabs are here.

There is a second YouGov poll out later tonight for the Sunday Times, with fieldwork conducted on Thursday and Friday...
