With almost four months of campaigning still to go before the EU referendum, only a fool would confidently predict the outcome at this stage. The betting markets and recent polling all suggest the Remain groups are comfortably ahead but in our first piece today Matthew Goodwin argues that the strength of anti-establishment feelings among voters shouldn't be underestimated. He points to outcomes of other referendums where eurosceptic campaigns have been successful, to demonstrate that Europhiles can't afford to be complacent. Elsewhere, we report that Zac Goldsmith believes a flagship government housing policy is 'catastrophic' for London. The Conservative mayoral candidate told the Creative Industries federation yesterday that the decision to allow office spaces to be "automatically" turned into residential properties has destroyed local economies in the capital. |
