fwiw: I definitely am paying the bill. But I'm also strongly pro-EU. Taxes are a membership fee for a functioning society.

As I said, I don't give much for opinion polls. And comparing two sides as you do now, doesn't mean that people are fond of either side.

You can prove anything with statistics. The last opinion poll I saw for my country of birth was both the EU and the national government at a less than 50% approval rate.
