Ukip voters worried that government will rig EU referendum, new poll finds

Around two thirds of Ukip voters believe the referendum is likely to be rigged

Voters were asked whether they agreed with the statement “It is likely that the EU referendum will be rigged” with possible responses “Probably true”, “Probably false” and “Don’t know”.

The study found a sharp contrast between the views of people leaning towards Remain and people leaning towards Leave, however.

Just 11 per cent of people who planned to vote Remain said it was “probably true” that the EU referendum would be rigged, while 70 per cent said it probably wouldn’t be.

Leave voters were far more suspicious, with 46 per cent agreeing that rigging was likely, and just 30 per cent saying it was unlikely to be rigged.

It would appear that the far-right already has conspiracy theories ready in case Brexit fails on Thursday.
